A floating lantern (khom loi) just about to lift off.  Chiang Mai is well-known for its famous Yi Peng Festival during which thousands of these lanterns are released into the night sky. Releasing the khom is a means of letting go of bad memories and making a wish for the future.  Pretty cool way to start off the New Year.
