[1] (Enlightened Palms) [2] One of the few things I actually like about this month [3] are the lights. More specifically, the lights most people decorate their palm trees (Enlightened Palms) [4].
Driving back from dropping Spring [5] off at work, I saw some impressive displays; impressive enough to go back and take pictures.
So I find myself parking my car at a shopping center (Deserted Shopping Center in West Boca at 2:30 am) [6] in northern West Boca at 2:00 am in the morning, digital camera and tripod in tow as I walk a block towards an exclusive, gated community to photograph their entrace light show, thoughts of cops [7] dancing in my head; anything done at 2:00 am can be construed as suspicious these days but the traffic is very light, which is one of the reasons I picked 2:00 am for this little outting. I setup directly across the street from the development and start taking pictures.
Of course, it was at that precise moment that traffic picked up, cars and trucks wizzing past (as you can see in the picture (Enlightened Palms) [8], which isn't a bad effect really; I like it).
Obviously, I made it home okay.
