White Nights

Yeah!!
Agree. Though I called it Le Notti Bianche. We should decide which name it will officially be called.

At first I didn't realize they were built sets and I couldn't figure out how they got the city to look like that. Lighting techniques, I wondered. I figured it out after a bit.

3 of my noms as well, but I certainly can't complain about the other two.  This is a great group.

It is a good group, but I wish more people saw The Singing, Ringing Tree to give it a chance here.
