Pic of the Day:: Aug 19th

These are large incense in the Buddhist Temple, Man Mo on Hollywood Street in Hong Kong.
.

They hang from the ceiling, and are moved higher as they burn down.  Monks move them almost continually.  When in the temples you can buy packs of small or medium incense, or even these giant incense and light them in prayer or homage to your ancestors, hopes or just as an offering.
.
They are beautiful.
