Info A woman lighting the candles for the Festival of Lights (Diwali, Deepavali) in India. Created by AjoyDutta1997 – (cropped and) nominated by --Aristeas (talk) 18:29, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support One of the most beautiful contributions to Wiki Loves Folklore 2023 – the ornament, the candles and the gesture of the woman combine to a simple, but intriguing composition. Yes, technically it is not perfect (but good) and the symmetry is not complete, but these little imperfections are understandable for a night shot and IMHO don’t diminish the beauty of the photo. --Aristeas (talk) 18:29, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support This is great! I think there are some disembodied parts of fingers at the bottom of the picture frame, but FP, anyway, in my opinion. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:07, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Arriving too late to vote, the picture is (fairly) speedy promoted, but I would have given a strong support because I find this image amazing. Nice find -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:10, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
