Colorful Pictures from Dilli Haat

Posted on March 4, 2012

I visited Dilli Haat with my sister on Saturday. As usual it was a riot of colors. I thought I should do a photo feature on it. So here I go.

These small miniature roses (not real) make for such a pretty picture. For some I am sure they make pretty decoration pieces as well. We ate a lot but for a change this time we did not buy anything at all, not even an earring.

Any corner of the Dilli Haat you turn to, chances are you will find colors. These were wall hangings for sale in front of a shop.

Saw this for the time, the concept of a mobile ATM. This one belonged to Punjab National Bank and was parked outside Dilli Haat.

I probably didn’t find Frikis as attractive as a child as I find them for photo object now!

I am actually a very reluctant street photographer. But these ladies were so engrossed in their jwellery that I dared to click a picture.

I decided to get close to these bangles and what a colorful picture they make!

This colorful rickshaw was also part of the Holi Milan stall. Holi is a festival of colors, where we smear each other with colors.

As I said, it is not difficult to find colors at Dilli Haat. These umbrellas were on the pavement and the owner did not object to people when they picked it up to pose for a picture.
