Dancers at the Okayama Uraja (岡山うらじゃ) Festival in Okayama, Japan. The festival is held every year on the first weekend in August. Its main event is a dance parade, in which different groups are competing. Dance participants paint their faces to look like ogres, and each team sports their own unique handmade costumes.
