Night Flowers

Now that the weather in Miami has cooled down I want to take advantage of it and go out for some exploration of  what happens in stores around town when after they close. In NY they store at night feel as alive as they do in the day.

Great light effects on deep colored flowers... black is the best background!

I don't remember the name of this flower shop in the Village but every time I go to NY I make it mandatory to walk by there because their flower display and the colors they use are amazing...

 Is there are place in your town that make you want to snap photos at night?

This weekend I was very lucky to work at some events held a two Mansion/States surrounded by luscious gardens that gave me the idea to attend some of they night events so I can play with images and the light effect of the moon light or just the surrounding light... what do you think?


Today I'd like to as all of you to please Tweet the following phrase to help the students of FIU promote the Wine and Food Festival Cookbook and earn money for scholarships:
