This is a selection of night views of local landmarks.
Update 9th November 2008, added images of the "Enlightenment" International Light Festival at Durham. These show the "Light of Darkness" by Sanchayan Ghosh under the Framwelgate Bridge (The eyes), then the "Calcutta Lights" by Nandita Palchoudhuri on the Elvet Bridge (The archways), then "Chandelier" by Lulu Quinn under the Kingsgate Bridge, then the "Illuminated Carpet" by Julie Westerman in the River Wear by the Prebends Bridge, finally back to the eyes. Also a new shot of Durham Cathedral of add to my old one.
