Let There Be Light - Lanterns That Fly and Float

Recently, I saw a beautiful video of Midsummer Night Lanterns in Poznań, Poland when countless lanterns flew into the night sky. It was a beautiful and moving sight:



Then, my friends and I share some similar videos of lanterns flying into sky or floating in the rivers. All of these videos were unbelievably enchanting and comforting:


This festival occurred on November 20th, 2010 just north of Chiang Mai, Thailand


Lantern floating on the Motoyasu River, Hiroshima, on the evening of August 6th, the anniversary of the atomic bombing of the city
