I'll let the photos mostly speak for themselves...

Unfortunately, my phone doesn't record in 3-D!
A pretty garden gate...
A visiting frog in a newly formed pond!
Then through a tunnel --
This photo hints at the scale of the installation. Although this is obviously constructed, many of the trees in the ABG are this tall.
My iPhone didn't do justice to the light displays (or could it have been the photographer? lol)
The lights weren't typical holiday-themed displays. Instead you walked through, under and above multicolor lights, more than 1 million of them!
In some areas, you seemed totally immersed in lights.
And snowflakes to remind you that it is winter!
The canopy walk is in the background, below.
It was very crowded that night with people of all ages.
Presiding over the gardens was Mother Nature.
Thank you for visiting the garden with me! For a different view of the garden, see Through the Glass, Darkly.

DeleteBeautiful display! We live 15 minutes from Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pa. so are members. Their Christmas display of lights is wonderful as well. Thanks for the tour!!!
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to see Longwood Gardens! I imagine it was gorgeous. Thanks for dropping by
DeleteThese pictures are pretty and I can only imagine what it was like to see this in person. We used to take the kids are the city when they were little to see the lights. I think we enjoyed them more then they did. Thank you for sharing with us this week at Celebrate Your Story, have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThese were truly amazing. I'm glad you enjoyed the photos.
