Master Showman Photo: A "magic" show performed on a field for a captive audience. From what I can gather (my Nepali is a bit rusty), the man under cloth appears to be dead. The magician revives the deceased by removing various bloody organs... when, and only when, donations have been collected from the crowd.

Ancestor Appreciation Photo: The eldest living male in the family, in this case my eldest uncle, holds the responsibility to prepare offerings for Chuseok (추석) celebration. Here, he ritualistically pours and twice circles soju, a Korean rice wine, around incense to offer thanks to his father (my grandfather) as well as previous ancestors. Note the traditional Korean garb worn for the occasion called a hanbok (한복).
Daejeon, South Korea
