Carnival Flower Power
Flowers always had extremely powerful effects among different human civilizations, traditions, groups & individuals by having different meanings & symbolizing a lot. The vibrant colorful paper flowers on hats of these guys are hand-made by people with an intention to evoke the spirits of spring & chase away the winter spirits. The sounds of bells are doing the same - awaking the sleepy streets & shaking up people's minds. This is also symbolizing fertility & another Earthly cycle of (re)birth beginning with springtime. Imagine if any of these guys gave at least one of these paper flowers to some girl who was there at the moment! What powerful meaning would that flower have?! :)
These guys are members of bell-carriers group from Vlahov breg i Korensko & more about them you can see in my previous post: @careassaktart/bell-carriers-from-vlahov-breg-and-korensko
