Just inside the park's east gate, on the west bank of the "Duck Pond," stands the Peter Pan monument. It shows the youthful Peter at the top, playing his flute, while fairies and woodland creatures scamper toward him, listening to the music. This statue has been, since it's unveiling in 1925, one of the most popular and beloved features of the park.
This scene was captured during the season of festive lights in Bowring Park. This is an annual tradition that begins in mid-December and carries through January. As in past years, I like to capture the event at different viewing locations. This scene was taken close to the statue, with lights reflecting off of the duck pond in the background. There was a full moon. The air was still. The temperature steady at 3C.
