As the evening approached on Diwali day,the home got filled wih prayers and diyas for aprosperous year ahead.As the diyas were lighted and the prayers chanted the home filled with positive energy and brightness.We made it sure as the diyas were lighted from the entrance to the inner rooms,the lights were put off one by one to assimilate the festivities and light around us.Some lamps were hung on the tree that bends into our terrace.An evening to remember as it is....the diwali evening..
Before the pedestal
my lord krishna's pedestal
a corner of the room on top of the chest
below the chest
on top of the centre table
an island created keeping in mind the centre table in the centre of the room
the triangles of lamps...and their reflection
on the steps leading to the terrace
beautiful okeh of light and lamps,some lamps are handmade by recycling old bottles
beautiful bokeh on the bookshelf
a distant view
with prayers and waiting for the next diwali

Lakshmi, these Diwali Images are so nice. I've always been fascinated with Indian culture, deep and rich. And as far as I've known, Diwali Festival is one of the most celebrated holidays in India. Very nice. Thanks for sharing those beautiful pictures. Happy Diwali to all!
