Woman in red by festival lights, Tihar

Festival lights glow behind a woman in red during Tihar.

A woman in a maroon sari with a gold-patterned border looks at the camera, a red tika on her forehead and long red beads around her neck. Behind her, other women in red stand in the dark, and festival lights melt into soft green, orange and pink circles. It is a night scene during Tihar, the festival of lights.
