Summary
| Description |
English: The Beung Fai Phya Nag -- the Naga's Fireballs - are an annual phenomenon always occurring at the end of the Buddhist Rains Retreat (Buddhist Lent, or Ork Pan Sa in Thai).
The fireballs, a rosy pink colour, emerge from the Mekong River in and around Nong Khai/Vientiane and shoot a couple of hundred feet into the air before disappearing. Many Thais believe they are hurled into the air by the Phaya Nark, a mythical giant snake that lives in the Mekong. Photos shot with Canon 1000D, with 10mm lens set at f4, exposure 30 seconds.ไทย: บึงไฟไพญานาค |
