Iruvai monsoon · nakaiy 7 of 27

Furabadhuruva.

14 February – 26 February. Hot, clear, and very bright at noon — golden hour is the whole session.

The first of the two Badhuruva; heat builds, rain is rare. Maldivian fishermen and farmers have planned by Furabadhuruva for centuries; the almanac says the same thing every year, and it is right more often than the forecast.

For photographs: hot, clear, and very bright at noon — golden hour is the whole session. Iruvai is the peak season, so book the date early — I hold a quote for five days.
