The night sky darkens and the 'Forest of Light' shimmers with vibrant colour, reflected in the mirror pool in Bradford's City Park. This art installation, designed by master light artists T.I.L.T, from France, has been illuminated for four nights. There are 56 light sculptures: red and gold-tipped reeds, giant thistles like fireworks, golden catkins and glowing red flowers, all beautifully reflected in the water. The show attracted thousands of visitors and although some seemed to expect more animation, most were content simply to drink in the atmosphere and enjoy a stroll around the park.
It's been my experience that these "light shows" can be very variable in quality. The one in Cambridge in February each year is always a real mish-mash - some brilliant installations and some that simply don't work on any level. The Bradford event looks pretty good to me from your photos.
