Divali 2008 Gallery
October 29, 2008
Here are some of the pix I took during Divali festivities yesterday. I took over 100 pix, but these are some of the best. I didn’t use flash at all except for a few pics, and relied on the lighting from the deyas small oil lamps and the overhead street lamps.
I first went to Ethel Street in St James, and had to walk from 3 streets away because I couldn’t get a closer parking spot. There were a lot of people there, from all walks of Trinidadian life, who came to enjoy the sights and sounds of the celebrations.
Then I went to Adam Smith Square in Woodbrook, where the celebrations were a bit muted, and not as intricate. After walking around for about 5 minutes, I opted to leave.
It was magical. Enjoy the pictures.
Peace and Rice,

I really enjoyed looking at your photos. I work with a single homeless in a resource centre in Portadown, Ireland and we are having Divali celebrations as part of our cultural awareness programme and I got loads of ideas from your photos. Thanks
