I'm always trying to take photos of the moon and sky in the evening but they rarely work out, unless there's an aurora or I bother to use a tripod. At least this one looks like a dark and stormy night. The weather associated with these clouds never turned into anything dramatic but for a while it did look they had the potential for some angry godlike thunder and lightning.
Since August, there's actually been something interesting to photograph at night, in our neck of the woods. The Nature of Light, an immersive experience, has been on display in the evenings at our local art center, which was illuminated on both the inside and out.
The weather has been perfect for taking pictures in the dark. Sadly, the event is closing after tonight but it was fun while it lasted.
The HYBYCOZO + Lightswitch production first came to our town in 2022 and my post on that visit can be seen here. We were really happy to hear they were returning.
This year they added a special interactive piece in the main gallery and my son, Andy did the honors.
It's amazing that the source of the pattern on the ceiling is cleverly sitting on the table.
Everyone definitely needs one of these for their dining table.
The gardens got an upgrade too. The colors washing the building and trees were particularly vibrant.
On cue, the moon decided to steal the show.
Even without any color the projections looked amazing.
The garden tour ends with spotlights sweep across the sky creating patterns over the formal garden. We've been watching these lights dance on the clouds from our patio most evenings. They must be visible from nearly everywhere in town.
Our backyard lights are no comparison to The Paine's, but they're festive. As long as the evenings are warm enough to enjoy (sometimes with a coat, or hat and gloves, or all three), we can pretend the Paine's spotlights are part of our display and maybe the raccoons will be entertained, too.
The Crew even have treats that are easy to find in the dark.
Thanks for dropping in, see you soon!
