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 got this shot on Carnival Monday night.
Really simple design, really stood out of the crowd with all the pink plumage.
Trinidad & Tobago is home to the ‘Greatest Show on Earth’: Carnival.
