Photographer's Note
Aarti is said to have descended from the Vedic concept of fire rituals, or homa. The word may also refer to the traditional Hindu devotional song that is sung during the ritual. Aarti is performed and sung to develop the highest love for God. "Aa" means "towards or to", and "rati" means "right or virtue" in Sanskrit. It is sometimes thought the word is from a type of cloth or as followers wore over the bodies during the ritual, or a "shiny cloth" means they wear it for a religious practice.

Nice shot really conveying the vibrancy here and I liked the POV... But I think it would 've better more clarity...

Very good shot. The angle works perfectly to create depth and your use of Black & White along with a slow shutter create a timeless image.
Cheers!
