trails of light

Trails of light made by the fireworks create some interesting images and patterns. I liked the faint red white and blue color.

light circles

One sees circles in the most interesting places, this was a bus shelter in Santa Fe on a busy street. Fortunately we had a red light when I saw this and took a quick picture. The light and the shadow were about as good as you could ask for.

'Star" lights

Found another of the 'Blossom of Light' mandala that reminded me of Starlight!

More Lights

More lights from the Denver Botanic Gardens. I liked the purple trunks and the other lights in the distance.

Christmas Lights

Bllue lights at the Denver Botanic Gardens Blossoms of Light Display.  Magical feeling under those blue lights.

light fireworks

Circles of light is the title, but mandala above also reminds me a bit of fire works.

This is the last of my holiday lights pictures.  Spring is coming even though we have been having snow storm after snow storm - I had a snow drop flower bloom in the front of the house.

Denver City and County Building

Another view of the Denver City and County Building all lit up for the holidays.  They can change the colors and this version was supposed to be orange and blue for the broncos.  The earlier picture had more blues and greens and was a section taken from the long low part of the building not the front entry.  

City and County lights

Mandala of a blue, green and red combination lighting the City and County building of Denver.

Reflections in a stream

A tree shedding purple light on the snow and that same light being reflects in a small stream with a touch of green.

Original Purple Tree

Here's the tree that made the snowflake like mandala uploaded earlier.  It was just sitting on a knoll by itself with other trees in the distance.  The purple reflected on the snow underneath the tree.

Purple tree

I liked the purple and gold tones that came through in this mandala and the almost snowflake like shape.  This is one of the decorated trees.

movement of the light

One of the problems with night time photography is that you need a tripod to not blur.  On the other hand sometimes movement has an interesting dynamic of it's own. The above picture moved a bit - so it looks like painting with light.
