As I mentioned previously, I’ve now a great storehouse of photos of puppets and masks from our recent visit to the Setai Darma House of Masks and Puppets near Ubud, Bali. I had a great time, in completely empty galleries, the D700 clicking away at ISO 6400 (available light only) and getting good results.
Here’s what welcomes you at the entrance to the fourth Joglo house, which contains a wealth of puppets, these being the first examples. On the left, Prayitno (director and collector of the works), on the right, You Know Who. (More details on the “House” are here.)
