There was a play of light and shade, shimmering through the trees outside my window and I thought how perfectly it matched my drape today! Luckily the phone was handy and I got a shot of this godhuli moment.

And a lucky daughter I am, for the many saree gifted by parents. This, one in mehendi green and maroon has small, embossed golden flowers, which shimmer as they catch the light, creating a lovely dhoop-chaanv effect.
