Lumiere London, a free festival of light in London, 14-17 Jan 2016. There are large lights across London. My photos don't do it justice -
Off Piccadilly Circus were the Luminéoles by Porté par le vent, huge floating dream-like creatures, each one controlled by one person.
Eléphantastic was really good, a hologram elephant under the arches high on a building in Regent St. This extraordinary animated projection brings the sounds of the jungle to Central London as he trumpets his way through the Regent Street area.
Piccadilly Circus -
The Garden of Light at Leicester Sq was particularly good. Giant illuminated plants, and even the real trees were tastefully lit.
Behind is the cinema showing the premier of The Revenant -
Shakespeare's statue -
Trafalgar Sq didn't seem to have anything when I was there, although lights were scheduled. Also I missed the dogs in nearby Coutts, this picture from the lumiere page
It was a bitterly cold evening and although I was wrapped up well, I didn't stay too long, so I missed many more of the lights that are at various locations around central London.
