Last night was the kickoff of Prospect Park in Lights, a holiday public-art thingie in which four of the Brooklyn park’s entrances are decorated with seasonably over-the-top lighting displays. (Apparently some 4 million LEDs are involved.) We’ve been looking at some photos of the event posted by the Gothamist kids — including the above image, by Atomische — and we’re thinking it looks kind of cool. We’re also thinking we’re glad we don’t pay the park’s Con Ed bill.
