Have you been to Thailand? Or were, but already miss him and his beautiful holidays? Then you had to be last night at Borisov ponds in Moscow. At 22:40 there was a flash mob launching sky lanterns. And the action was successful, I tell you.
As it passes in Thailand, I already wrote – Holiday Loy Krathong and Yi Peng festival, or the New Year in Thailand. Of course in the country smiles flashlights are launched in thousands of pieces, and not only in official holidays, but just for birthdays. Initially, I am not completely understood what the buzz was, but when he himself launched a flashlight a couple of times, it dawned on me that this is a kind of immersion in childhood and getting joy from nothing.
So, yesterday in Moscow, despite the last rain and overcast sky, about 200 people gathered, and it’s great that the weather isn’t influenced people. Somewhere at 22 o’clock the people began to bunch up on the shore of the pond, talked and waited for the spectacle. Most of all I was pleased no drunk or drunk people. Indeed, why, when and so fun.
All walking peacefully
Only in the hands of all weird packages
There are still few people
Everybody is just sitting and waiting for something.
At 22:20, the sky lanterns began to unfold, read instructions to write your wishes on them and of course photographed against their background. If in Thailand, the lanterns are ordinary cylindrical and white, there is a greater variety: drawings, smiles, shapes in the form of hearts and domes.
Slowly everyone gets colorful lanterns
Slowly everyone gets colorful lanterns
Memory photos
Someone writes wishes
Someone is watching what he bought
Flashlight with smile
Big flashlight with pictures
Popribavilos people, soon everything will start
Photographed
Someone has a very serious technique.
Almost everyone is ready
At 22.38, the first lights appeared, and the first lights up designs. Many people did it for the first time, so someone I wondered why the flashlight does not take off, someone burned it in the very beginning—
Flashlights start to glow
More and more lights
First went
Almost the whole glade is already glowing.
Burned out without starting his life
At the bottom of the photo a girl is running for a flashlight.
At 22.40 the enchanting action began. Hundreds soared into the sky luminous colored dots screaming and hooting. Highly beautiful! Especially in the dark. It lasted all 10 minutes, new lanterns rose up, and the old disappeared over the horizon. BUT someone even brought fireworks with him—
One by one they fly up to the sky.
One by one they fly up to the sky.
One by one they fly up to the sky.
Over normal sleeping area
How great is that so many people have come
Dome flashlight
Run into the sky is in full swing
Run into the sky
Sky lanterns in the sky
Straight from Thailand came to the flash mob
Sky lanterns in the sky
Preparing another salvo
Heart shaped flashlight
Inscription Make a Wish
Launching sky lanterns
Run into the sky
A bit of fireworks at the end of the event
A bit of fireworks at the end of the event
Sky lanterns in the sky
P.S. I noticed that the Russian lanterns are not quite suitable the fuel cell burns a lot less time though for cold air should be the other way around. As a result, the flashlights did not fly away. very far. In Tae, they flew out of the city, and climbed hundreds of meters.
