People living in a remote village in Takhatpur, India have just married a couple of frogs, hoping that God will bring rain.
The village in India is facing severe drought, so the villagers have performed the ancient rain rite ceremony: a wedding for frogs. The image is a ceremonial ceremony for a married couple to kiss the wedding vow.
Most villagers, especially children, are eager to gather to watch the frog wedding.
The frogs will be sprayed with orange powder on their heads and colorful flowers with a candle in front for wedding photos. Some localities in India, frogs are considered to have special strength because they can feel the rain coming.
The Indian woman was wearing this country's traditional costume for the frog couple during the wedding, which was a red sleeveless robe and a scarf on her neck.
After the wedding ended, ie the prayer of the villagers' rain gods was completed, the villagers would release the frog couple in a nearby river, so they could enjoy their honeymoon.
Not only did the wedding ceremony for frogs, the people in India also organized weddings for donkeys and buffaloes to pray for rain.
