I captured these photos at a traditional carnival ("Fašnik") in Baranja, Eastern Croatia. It is a centuries-old tradition and is still cherished today. There are several legends about "buše." One legend says that the "buše" (people in costumes) drove the Turks from this area with their noise and clamor. In contrast, according to another legend, the "buše" chased winter away. The event lasts for several days. A large parade is organized that goes through the village. People are lighting a fire in the streets, and at the end of the event, people burn a giant knitted sculpture. In some countries known as a "Wickerman." - Carnival riding ("Pokladno jahanje") has its roots in the time of the Military Frontier. It is an event where we can see horse riders dressed in traditional attire. Carnival riding is traditionally held in Slavonia, Baranja, and Srijem. The' event's goal is to preserve the tradition and love for horses, without which the life of the inhabitants of this area couldn't have been imagined. The event takes place every Shrove Thursday before Ash Wednesday. - Nikon F100 (with manual focus because my autofocus stopped working that day -.-) + Sigma Art 50mm 1.4 and @kodak Portra 400. - #portra400 #nikonf100 #traditional #traditionalart #traditionalcarnival #carnival #Baranja #EasternCroatia #filmphotography #personalproject #photoseries #analogphotographyph #photofilmy #broadmag #OpenTheme2022 (at Gajic Baranja) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcpYoXTohhe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"I listened to songs that have a constant source of virtue for me personally from my grandmother. She sang us songs from her childhood, from Mohács in Hungary, where it was definitely necessary to nurture, preserve Serbian traditional music."
