Deepavali Kolam-s

Happy Deepavali!

I know I am pretty early in wishing this year... When I downloaded my pictures yesterday, I could not resist not posting them up tonight.... the "Kolam-s" were so colourful as seen in Berjaya Times Square and Mid Valley, Kuala Lumpur. Nothing of these are seen here in Ipoh unfortunately. It was a poor sight at Ipoh Jaya Jusco when I went there last night. Didn't have the heart to take a picture of that, kind of shy to put it up compared to the beautiful sights of KL...

Berjaya Times Square, KL

nearer vision..

the crowd was not as many as in Mid Valley..

this one is beautiful...

this one is from KL Sentral...

Mid Valley, Kuala Lumpur..

Another one from Mid Valley...

Mid Valley has a few of Kolam from the North/South/Central courts

Happy Deepaveli....
