Vesak is a holiday traditionally observed by Buddhists and some Hindus to commemorate the birth, enlightenment, and death of Gautama Buddha.  Being the most important of the Poya full moon days, the Lotus Tower was consequently lit both last night and this.  With permission to climb to the highest point of our apartment complex – 146 metres above ground level – and involving a vertical ladder in the dark for the final piece (thank heavens the camera was in its rucksack, secure on my back and not swinging around), I was rewarded with some spectacular images.

Here\’s one of them.
