A night of illusion and fantasy
Not easy to recreate with photographs, but this video shows some of the effort that went into creating LUZA 2019 at Faro. A night full of light!
Wishing you all a happy weekend! I guess this one fits Debbie’s Light theme as well as Six Word Saturday.
Very cool Jo, and such a challenge to photograph! WE have an event coming up here called “Lights of Magnolia” done in a beautiful garden decorated with dozens of huge Chinese light sculptures. Can’t wait to see it but can only hope my photos come out as beautifully as yours did! They’re not allowing tripods or momopods unfortunately
I just shoot and hope, Tina. The software is so good that I can make most of my photos look good even when they’re a bit duff. There’s always the no hopers though 🙂 🙂 Love the sound and music at these things! Happy Sunday, Tina!
No-hopers. Gotta remember that!
Stunning set of photos Jo – the light installations look so lovely it must have been a beautiful evening. Hope all is well with you xx 😃
There was a bunch of us, which is unusual for an outing like this, but we really enjoyed it, thanks. 🙂 🙂
I love seeing these light shows. Did it have music to coordinate with the display?
Yes, that’s partly why I enclosed the video. My hands are always too shaky to take my own. 🙂 🙂
What a night! And so wonderfully photographed. My 6 word Saturday? Hoping, hoping and hoping for rain!!!
That’s a hope so many are sharing with you, hon. It’s quite autumnal here this week. A neighbour is coming out for just a week and I’m pretty sure she’ll get that rain you’re needing 😦 😦
Beautiful and what a great time it must have been, especially with friends. Thanks for sharing. It gets dark so early now that any extra light is appreciated. 🙂

We had a lovely time together, Janet. So happy we went 🙂 🙂
Wow super photos Jo ! Must have been great fun there with a group of friends .
Nice it wasn’t too busy being the first night , so how long is it on for then Jo ?
Have a lovely rest of the weekend x
Just 3 nights, Poppy. I expect last night and tonight to be busier, but it suited us nicely. Just me and Mick were going but others joined in, so it was a fun evening. Good to support local events 🙂 🙂 Thanks, hon!
Looks like lots of fun
We had a great night, Alice, thanks 🙂 🙂
What a fascinating thing for a village to do..
A lot of work involved but it made a very interesting evening, Lisa. 🙂 🙂
So festive! Looks like a fun evening. Thanks for sharing, Jo!
It was a fun outing, Jill 🤗💕
Magical for sure! Your captures share the evening of light perfectly, Jo. Have a good weekend.
Thanks, Ruth 🙂 🙂 We always used to go to Lumiere in Durham whenever it was on so I was really pleased to find a light show quite locally.
Big thanks, Jo, for spreading the light! ✨✨✨
Got to do it, Tish 🤗🌌💕
marvellous you!
Looks like a great evening out Jo, and much better than what we had locally last November. Our town was celebrating 21 years of its art initiative and for brief periods on the Friday and Saturday evening the front of the town hall was illuminated with different colours and images. I got some great photos for my blog but the event was very poorly advertised so I think I may have missed out on a lot of it 😦
This is the 3rd year for this event but the first to be held in Faro, Eunice. I didn’t really know what to expect but it was great 🤗💕
Cool event, Lovely photos😄
It was an excellent night of entertainment, Gilda. I really enjoyed it 🤗💕
What a fun evening out 🙂
It was excellent, hon. Last year was in Loule and we were in the UK so I wasn’t sure what to expect 🤔🍰💕
We’re off to one in Edinburgh in a week or so 🙂
Love those night festivals Jo, always wonderful. Great pics.
Thanks Jonno. Great atmosphere! Nice people 🤗💕
Looks a great event, Jo. And it must be an awful lot warmer than the Durham and London versions! Have a great weekend
It was a bit fresh by the water, Debs, but I thoroughly enjoyed it 🤗💕
Oh how I wish I was there. Looks a real treat Jo 🙂
It was a really good night, Brian. The opening one of the festival and not too busy 🙂 🙂
I hope the stagger home was downhill 😀 😀
Now that looks like a great night out.
We had a lot of fun, Margaret. There were 8 of us 🙂 🙂
That sounds like a proper party!
Reblogged this on LIVING THE DREAM.
Thank you 🙂 🙂
FANTASTIC POST JO, WITH GREAT PHOTOGRAPHS, CHINA
Thanks a lot, China 🙂 🙂
