After a long time I am uploading one of my pookolams. I made this arrangement last month when I had been to the flower market to purchase roses for a function in Anita's college (inauguration of the theatre group of Madras University). There were loads of roses and I went crazy picking from a variety of colours and sizes. I tried to take pictures inside the market but because it was around 6.30 am and the lighting inside the market was not too good the photographs have a different look altogether. I will upload them in the cafe soon for you to see... The roses in this urli stayed fresh for about 10 days (thanks to the recent Chennai climate)..

Straight dots: 17(3) - 3
Even though Kaarthigai is over and Marghazhi has started I still have more lamp kolams which I am uploading. They can always be tried for this month too 
First day of Marghazhi was a wet day and the rain played spoil sport and I could not put a kolam outside my house - instead I did one on the computer and am uploading it here. I am sure many are familiar with this lotus kolam. Dot count - straight dots 20 (5 lines) ends with 5.
Straight dots: 13 - 13
Here again another simple lamp kolam which can be developed as per your imagination..
Interlaced dots: 11 - 6
This is another simple lamp kolam which many of you might already know - I am trying out new applications and textures on photoshop (just got the guts to experiment) and hope they all come out well...
Straight dots: 10 - 10
Another simple lamp kolam which I have developed from a base. I am sure this is quite easy too.
Straight dots: 10 - 10
Here is a combination of 4 different lamp kolams with the same number of dots.. Small changes make the entire kolam look different. I am sure all of you also can make changes and make new kolams - just try and see...
