Diwali , the festival of lights is the most
joyful and brightest of all Indian festivals.
This 5 day festival marks the triumph of good
over evil and the victory of light over dark.
The days are marked with joy, happiness ,
meeting friends and relatives and spreading the
cheer of festivity with everybody around.
Diya on my plate !!

Diya on my plate !!
Watermelon, yellow bell pepper, carrot, cucumbers
n savoury stars
There is a divine aura of the festive spirit around.
Colourful patterns called rangolis are made on
the floor as a sign of celebration and to welcome
the divine !!
The markets are lined with the
vendors selling the most gorgeous rangoli
pigments almost everywhere ! These colourful
patterns are often made using colourful petals or
dyed rice too .Each house has their own liking
towards the chosen patterns which often
ranges from geometrical designs to lotus motifs
and tiny footsteps, as a symbol of Goddess's
tiny feet.
Clay lamps or diyas are an integral part of the
festivities and are lighted as a symbolic representation
to welcome the Goddess of wealth and prosperity,
Lakshmi. During this time a visit to the market or
a potters colony is worth every bit !! After being
baked the diyas are hand painted individually or
dipped in traditional brick red color or Geru !
The market boasts of the most gorgeous display of
not only varied colors but a enigmatic display of
patterns, textures and bubbling life too and nothing
can be better than capturing the feel of this in
monochrome and celebrate the essence joy around !!!
Wish you all a very Happy Diwali !!!
