A worker prepares the kite thread on the road side in the northern Indian city of Jammu, the winter capital of Kashmir on Tuesday, August 2. The kite string or the 'dorr' is made of crushed glass, glue, colors and egg on the thread to make it strong enough to hold the kite. Kite flying is a passion not only in India but all over the world.

The vibrant diagonals reminded me of an image we posted a few hours ago. More photos from India here.
