Onam and its myriad moods at home

 The mood as Onam approaches is one of optimism and hope and beauty through the lenses of my camera.

Prosperity
Purity

Wealth
Optimism and truth
Formless divinity

Reuse and Recycle
Unconscious Beauty
Colourful
Floral Pattern
Pots and Patterns

Old Saris to Curtains
Love for the old
Some lovely Onam thoughts

    The floral rangoli is so simple and yet so beautiful, all the pictures are so good, and I like the flowers floating inside the round glass fish bowl.

    Absolutely fabullous...actually brilliant! My fav is the recycle photo!! Thanks for stopping by MDC. The picture you liked is a wooden tile I picked up during my trip to Bali. They use them to decorate their homes and temples.
