Diwali is one of the major festivals of India. Diwali also know as “Festival Of Lights”, is celebrated as homecoming of King Ram of Ayodhya after 14 year exile in the forest.
Diwali aka Deepawali is celebrated on first day of lunar Kartik Month. As the night is dark as there is no moon, it is famous that people of Ayodhya welcomed King Rama by lightening Deepaks thus named Dipawali.
On this day Goddess Lakshmi is worshiped to welcome health, wealth and prosperity.

Night Shots — How to get extra odinary light effects
Written by Anurag Bhateja on April 23, 2008 – 11:00 am -On This image Nitin Bhadhwar from My Flickr requested for tutorial on how to get such kind of shots. So Nitin ji here it goes.
1. This kind of shots are possible in night as well as in day time. In day time if you want to play with lights then you have to search for places where light is getting obstructed by some sort of living or non-living objects like trees or buildings. In night time you have to search for a place where high intensity lights are there with same sort of things which can give light a cool effect.
2. As this image is a night shot the settings that are used will be suitable for night shots only. Prefer there should not be any moving object in the frame for that particular time slot as if there is a moving object the image will get blurred.
3. After searching for the appropriate place make yourself comfortable and also set your camera either on a tripod or on a smooth surface where it should not get any jerks. Don’t keep your camera in hands.
4. In manual mode set your camera on Exposure/Shutter speed-13s, F/3.2, ISO-100. This setting is according to the availability of light at the place. You should play with the settings to get more crisp shot. Set the timer to 2 sec, press the click button and remove your hand away and let the camera work for you now.
5. After the shot get some more shots with slight changes in settings and see which comes better.
