This shot was taken during the Diwali celebration few months back. AKA Deepavali, which also popularly known as "Festival of Light", is the big festival celebrated by our Hindus friends, involving the lighting of small clay lamps filled with oil to signify the triumph of good over evil.
The celebration starts at their own house together with the family members performing traditional activities, eating sweets, and then followed by a big gathering with families, friends, and relatives at public places (e.g.: park or garden) to burst the fireworks/firecrackers as shown in this shot. What a nice and lively celebration they have!
