Diwali in Dunwoody<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Create Dunwoody | www.createdunwoody.org<\/p>\n

Dunwoody Nature Center | October 17, 2025<\/p>\n

Fun family event, with some great food from a new restaurant! I definitely liked the spice level. Two sets of photos, one right before sunset with some nice sunlight, and the other in the pitch blackness.\u00a0 Definitely a test for my older lenses and gear, which was all Nikon today.\u00a0 Every body did great on stage!<\/p>\n
