Rangoli

A beautiful Rangoli outside my neighbour's door.

Rangoli is an art form originating in the Indian subcontinent, in which patterns are created on the floor or a tabletop using materials such as powdered lime stone, red ochre, dry rice flour, coloured sand, quartz powder, flower petals, and coloured rocks. It is an everyday practice in Hindu households, however the colours are preferred during festivals and other important celebrations as it is time consuming. Rangoli are usually made during Diwali or Tihar, Onam, Pongal, Sankranthi and other Hindu festivals in the Indian subcontinent, and are most often made during Diwali. Designs are passed from one generation to the next, keeping both the art form and the tradition alive. Wikipedia.

Peering

The fledgling purple rumped sunbird peers out of its nest at the world passing by. Loved the architecture of the nest. The window has a cute little roof too!

Haze cleared

We had unseasonal rains last evening that cleared the haze that has been polluting the air for the past couple of days.
