Plastic planets

Globe-shaped floor lamps are installed around the UP-AyalaLand TechnoHub's central plaza (see yesterday's post). The lights change colors every few seconds. Needless to say, kids love them. Adults too.

Don't make the mistake of leaning on one, however. The light fixture is on the ground and the globes are really just large lampshades; they're made of some kind of light, translucent plastic material and even a child can easily topple them over. How do I know, you say? Someone made that mistake the night we were there. I could see the guy's embarrassment from his body language from across the plaza.

From the thumbnails, I thought you had captured some brightly-colored moons! I can imagine these are very attractive to the young at heart!

I like the colors these globes emanate. The poor kid probably had no intention of breaking a globe. His attraction to it was probably like a moth to a flame.
