Hello mid-west and congratulation on this spectacular spectacle of lights!!!
Unbelievable... The first thing I said when we got in was "Oh wow, this is the Chinese Burning Man! ".
Heehee, for those of you not familiar with Burning Man, I invite you to check out some photos here and after that if you're still interested in knowing more... here is the official website, it's a pretty incredible experience! Some claim it to be The Festival of All Festivals (than I've also heard it being called the grandmother of Festivals while Glastonbury is the Grandfather!)
The Dragon Lights Festival
Anyone in the area this festival goes on till the 6th of January at the Columbus Expo Center (in Ohio, USA). It is well worth a drive to it, we were all impressed... from 4 year olds to 68 year olds!!!
From the great entrance!
The great blue elephant, that changed color when someone peddled a bicycle hooked up to the system.
Through the hall of jellyfish...
That was when I mentioned Burning Man, I really felt like I was there for a moment. All the lights and amazement gabe me a boost of energy!
At some point we were in a Water World:
Walking through the inside of the shark!
All the work that it must have taken to put together is beyond my imagination... Wire frames spot welded into shape, with tulle-like material of different colors cut, sewn and glued right where it needs to be and than all the ligjts and wires for them all... it was endless, I have too many photos to put in here but I think as is, you got the point of this awesome little trip!!!
I defenitely want to come back next time we're in town, this time of the year!
Ok, a couple more photos...
Ok ok that's all because otherwise I'll keep posting all the photos I took... gotta keep some that never get published!
Embrace both your strength and weaknesses as they knitted into one you, and you are knitted together with one another. Like in an ocean of planktons, red fish, dolphins and whales, all are knitted to form the ecosystem. So embrace your own life.
Wow! Magical!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had no idea. Thank you so much!

It really was amazing to see. I'm sure the energy used was considerably high-ish but not completely crazy... they were all LED's.
I'm well, started the year with a crazy fever and spent that first day in bed mostly, but I seem better today and will be able to drive home 😁!
I hope you are all very well.

It had to be handmade, it looked like it and there were too many differences between similar forms... small imperfections here and there that could only be seen up close.
Really incredible! A lot of work for sure!!!

Incredible! I love light show stuff like this, but these seemed even more interactive and artistic than others I've been to. Wow, how beautiful. Thanks so for sharing, your pictures are great.
