Hope your power outages don’t transpire….

Do do I. But on the other hand, it’s late evening and I do have some very nice beeswax candles 😀

Both lovely shots, Su. I hope the power outages don’t occur but I’m glad you’re ready just in case!

Thanks Leslie. A friend gave me a big block of beeswax, so I’m making candles.

We have a local display called Bright Nights around Christmas time here, but it is nowhere near as beautiful as what you photographed. It’s mostly cartoon characters to entice children and their parents to pay money to drive through the park.
Hope you didn’t lose power.

That’s sad. Ours was free, and set up along an area of the waterfront, so there were some lovely reflections of coloured light on the water. There are lots of cafes and bars in the area — which I’m sure benefited from all the extra foot traffic, but there was no actual charge to see the light installations. And some of them were really good.
There were no power cuts in the end, though the wind was really wild. I still haven’t had a chance to really try out my beeswax candles!

Yours sounds lovely.
And you sound almost disappointed that you didn’t lose power. Just turn off the lights and light the candles!

Hope the power outage wasn’t too long? It very seldom happens around here as all the cables are laid deep into the ground. But when it happens every second seems too long! 😂 What comfortable creatures we have become!

We were lucky; no outage in the end. I had to just light my candles anyway. They are homemade and I wanted to test them.
