Bright Lights

Christmas is incomplete without lights. Lights festooned on trees, houses, or buildings that come in different colors. I enjoy going around villages just to glimpse the Christmas decorations bedecked on houses.  I like the long stretch of Ayala Ave in Makati because of the lights adorned on trees and lamp posts.

This is the SGV building in Ayala.

Across the SGV is the Philippine Stock Exchange building, where you will be greeted by this huge nativity scene:

In its usual glamorous offer, the Ayala Triangle is conducting a nightly Musical Light Show this Christmas season, every hour, from 6pm to 9pm.

With the lights off, there was nothing much to appreciate. The trees looked sad and the park lacked radiance. But you can see a lot of people crowding the place, usually parents with their children, waiting for the show.

At the start of the show, the flowers slowly bloomed (compare above and below photos), with Christmas tunes accompanying the flickering of lights.

And dramatically changes its hue with every beat of the song.

Just beautiful! I was smiling all throughout.  The show lasted for 15 minutes. It was a sight for sore eyes!

Have a bright and colorful Christmas, everyone!
