Quite Deepavali

Deepavali, the festival of lights is celebrated all over India with great enthusiasm.  It is celebrated outside India other counties like Sri Lanka, Nepal. It is cerebrated as win of good over the evil.



One of the highlight of the festival is lighting lamps and decorating in the night and busting crackers. The sky is brightened by these crackers.



They form different patterns on the sky with different colors of light. But this year there are busting of crakers in the sky, but are not same as previous year may be because of sky rocketing prices. 



Even though it comparatively quite, it is still a bright festival. People celebrate it with same zest as earlier.


Happy Deepavali to all.
