The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary Feast

The decoration done at Ariyankuppam Church (Pondy). Sept 1 - Sept 8 which is celebrated as The Nativity of The Blessed Virgin Mary the world over.

Also known as The Purification of the Virgin Mary in some parts of the world. In Poland this is called Mother of God of the Blessed Thunder Candle (Candlemas).
The Birth of Mary (Eastern and Western tradition) .

The winegrowers in France called this feast "Our Lady of the Grape Harvest".
In the Alps section of Austria this day is "Drive-Down Day"

These images were taken while returning from office. Captured a bit in dark and light option but still i guess the images are clear.

Except that the western images of Mother Mary have been edited.
