Synopsis

This image shows lamps lit to celebrate the Hindu religious 'Festival of Lights' set against a night-time sky.

There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The image is surrounded by a dashed line image border.

In the top left of the image is the symbol Om, signifying creation and the name of God.

The right side of the image is filled with a multi-flamed lamp, seen from the side. At the top of the lamp are five flames fuelled by oil. Down from this, on a tray fixed to the lamp stand, are two small oil lamps; each one is decorated with a swastika, a Hindu symbol of good fortune.

The star-filled sky is coloured blue at the top of the page, fading to pink at the bottom with two long clouds going across the bottom left part of the image.
