Waiting for the festival of lights

Deepavali, or Diwali, (Markiscarali) is a major Indian festival, Many legends are associated with Diwali. "Festival of Light" where the lights or lamps signify victory of good over the evil within every human being .

Deep/dip means "light of the dharma" and avali means "a continuous line".

 

( I just bought a set of diyas or lamps to light up and decorate the house and decided to fool around with the camera on the tabletop)
