Lights on Temple Square

Last weekend we drove into the city with hundreds of others to view the lighting of Temple Square in Salt Lake City. Remind me to never go again on the opening weekend!

I have not been for umpteen years but it was really lovely even being so crowded and it had not turned frigid cold yet.

Linking to my favorites:

Friday's Fences
Weekend Reflections 
Sunday Shadow Shot2

 Looking down at inside waterfall and decorated trees at City Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.


 Across the street from Temple Square are fountains at City Center.  They make wonderful reflections.


 At least two of my photos of the lights on Temple Square turned out really good for me.  They are my first attempt at night shots.


Shadows in the fountain.
