siberian sunfolower growing in front of my apartment. according to the seed packet, these plants will reach a height of 12 feet. this one was about 7.
this is my friend swetha, who invited me to a festival of dewali at old dominion university. it was really cool. i was impressed by the amazing indian dances, both traditional and modern, and by the sarees. dewali, i learned, is among other things a celebration of light. i'm not a physicist, but as i understand it color is the name we give to certain wavelengths of light. it is interesting that of the entire spectrum of elecromagnetic radiation, our eyes can detect and differentiate only a small portion of those waves, what we call the visible spectrum, or ROYGBIV (red orange yellow green blue indigo violet). in any case, here is a vibrant green/blue saree above, with rich reds, violets, and blues below.
since going to dewali i've noticed that most of the clothes virginians wear is so muted. the colors are out there, why aren't we wearing them?
