One of my dear friends recently celebrated Ganesh Chaturthi.... Had visited his place with bunch of other friends...Some photos from the celebration....

Slightly more closer....
Details of the ornaments for the Ganapati
A side view.....
This close up was taken with a flash....
The eyes of the Lord are mesmerizing. The art of making these idols is usually passed down from generation to generation within a family.
It does look like such a delightful, colorful festival and I love your photos! What an art indeed is the making of these! Thank you for sharing the beauty of the Ganesh Chaturthi celebration! Hope you have a wonderful week, Pankaja!

I love your colourful photos. What amazing idols - and it must take a great deal of skill and patience to decorate them so. Those eyes are certainly mesmerising. I shall follow your blog as I love to see photos particularly from your city.
