Here’s the description of the photo taken from Mainichi Japan as well:

Colorful carp streamers fly in the spring breeze over the Kase River in Saga on Saturday, March 27. Some 300 carp streamers hung along 11 80-meter-long wires over the river can be seen during the Kawakamikyo Spring Festival, which runs through May 9. (Mainichi)

These colorful Koinobori 鯉幟 just add so much festival colors to any occasion, I’d love to hang one outside my home. ^^
