Northern Lights

 

Until last Monday we had a lovely exhibit in the sculpture garden of our Center for the Arts. It was called "Northern Lights".

The sculpture garden is not particulary big and it took just half an hour walking through it and admiring all the beautiful light installations that were so fitting for the season and truly "lit up the night" - at least until 9:00pm.

I don't know how many LED lights were displayed, but since it's LED these lights didn't use much energy. There were a couple beautiful archways and the Geek couldn't resist taking a photo of us in one of them. (First two faces for Nicole's Friday Face Off)

This one was my favorite display - I liked the sculpture and the way the lights led up to it.

And this one was a close second.

Do you see the faces? These are the second two faces for Nicole's Friday Face Off.

Maybe you like some spheres better. They were constantly changing their color.

I also liked the lights in some of the trees.

It could have been a really beautiful experience, if - parents would have set a better example for their children. Everywhere were signs to please not step into the displays and stay on the path, however, there were quite a high number of parents who encouraged their kids to walk right into the display, trample around the area and behave like the little devils their parents showed them to be. Since when have people become so incredibly entitled and disrespectful?

The Geek and I decided to leave when this behavior became too much. It's so sad that some people have to spoil an otherwise beautiful experience for others.
