There was an event yesterday in Leeds Town Hall on the occasion of Diwali. It is celebrated every year here in Leeds Town Hall and I was lucky to have been a part of the Leeds Desi Beats group, who performed here last night (pictured above).

It was an awesome experience and the hall was filled with musicians, dancers, and students from India who come up with creative ways to celebrate Diwali in a home away from home. It was a well organized event.

As I woke up on a Sunday morning at my uncle’s place, I was disappointed when I scrolled the curtains down, to see the rain outside. I was in Wales at my Uncle’s for the weekend. We had planned the night earlier about a road drive to Rhossili, situated at The Gower Peninsula, a world heritage site, 15kms from the beautiful town of Swansea, the place where I had put up.

Later on, as we were having our breakfast, we saw bright sunlight all of a sudden, a cool breeze, blowing the dark clouds away, and giving way to clear, blue skies. Without wasting a second, we got ready, deciding to go for the ride. The road to Rhossili was narrow, but beautiful. After a 20 minute drive, we had finally arrived at our destination. I was spellbound the landscape and the scenic beauty. The place was just perfect for a date between nature and a photographer. Luckily, I had my camera with me to give a glimpse of what I mean.
