There was a people party in Kayen Village, the place where studiokasatmata studios presents. There gonna be a Jathilan. Since I didn't have so much to do on this weekend, I pack my gear and came to studio on Sunday ..and I'm not dissapointed I did. Rain didn't mean a pulldown, though I need to be more careful in protecting my camera, but it made the Jathilan trance even more dramatic!
