Earthen lamps are lit and placed in every Hindu house to signify the Full moon day in the month of Karthigai. This 3 day celebration is often termed as an extension to Deepavali.
I was surprised that there were recipes which are made on this occasion. The Peanut Ladoo (Verkadalai Urundai), Puffed Rice Ladoo (Pori Urundai) and Appam to name a few.
This year the spirit of the festivity was dampened by the monsoon season as rain came pouring just about nightfall. Plans to light up the garden had to be put aside.
We resorted to placing them in the porch and daddy had a field day for his enthusiasm to capture the beauty of the light, was seen readjusting all that we've done.
It wasn't an SLR camera to begin with but the angles he got into for these shots was a bit much for a camera phone. To make it worse, he needed a model for some of his ideas.
This model got paid in hugs and kisses from the Art Director himself.
