Chinese New Year, that is. The year of the Ox. Here are a few pictures I’ve taken of Chinese New Year celebrations in the past. With Lockdown, I don’t suppose there’ll be too many going on this year, at least outside of China.

A couple of months ago, it was higher. Even the Indian govt imposed a lot of trade restriction owing to the ongoing border issues.
