I love that botanical gardens do this. We need the creativity and lights, and the walk outdoors in winter is excellent too. The botanical garden gets a boost too: extra season and $$$; win win.

Cool, we have tickets for this tonight. Looks like it will be worth it.

That is so beautiful. The screens and orbs are great. I love the large orb in the middle of the sand garden. Thanks for sharing these photos. I didn’t know Albuquerque had a botanical garden.
