Festival lanterns of Loi Krathong streak through the sky above the Chao Phraya river in Bangkok (ARCHIVED PHOTO on the weekends - originally photographed 2010/11/21).

This is the same Chao Phraya river that's swollen and flooding various parts of Bangkok at the moment. Despite the flooding, I wish the Thai people to have an equally joyous Loi Krathong this year (November 8, 2011).
