I was expecting that West Lake would go almost completely dark at night.
I was not surprised that West Lake in fact shows its peace and serenity when most of the banks are deserted.
In the night West Lake returns to her innocence from the day’s pomp and shows her peace, elegance and romance.
There are still people walking the banks and cyclists riding in the dark.
I wasn’t ready to take photos of the night scene of West Lake, so here is my only photo which shows the busier part of the West Lake with a tower (spire) in the distant background.
Hope you feel the peace too!

Yes the picture does bring the rest and the peace from the day of running around 🙂
Glad that you feel the peace too!

Capturing the spirit of light at night is a challenge; this photograph gives a great sense of that spirit. Very nice.
Thanks for the kind comment. Regards, Michael
