Chihuly at Fairchild Botanical Gardens, Miami Florida

Chihuly art glass scattered throughout one of the best botanical gardens in America under the December moonlight was a great way to enjoy one of the lazy nights in the week between Christmas and New Years. Fairchild Botanical Gardens in Coral Gables Florida is normally a "day" place but is open every Thursday night from 6 to 9 during the stay of this lovely exhibit for night viewing. Dramatic lighting, musicians scattered around the grounds and the December moonlight coupled with a 65 degree breeze made for a memorable night.

These reminded me of the beautiful glass ceiling at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, one of the installations Chihuly is most famous for.
