Mylapore Festival

The area around Kapali temple is always interesting for the heritage and photography buffs. When the Mylapore Festival is on, it is all the more fun.  I managed to take a peek at the Festival on Saturday evening.

Kolam contest -Mylapore Festival

Since the beginning of the Mylapore festival in early part of last decade, I was an avid watcher till 2007 when I moved to Trivandrum. This year, fortunately, I was passing through Madras when the fest was on. I was able to capture the Kolam contest briefly and some of the sidelights on Saturday, the 10th January
