Color Carnival # 69 -lanterns


Floating 'lanterns' exhibits during the Mid Autumn Festival 2010 along the river bank.  The lantern displays were specially designed for the event by 33 craftsmen flown in from Sichuan, China. They spent a month building the giant creations, which then had to be transported and put into place by crane.
