The curators describe this exhibition as "an exhibition of night photography, nocfturnal landscapes, light painting and artistic interpretations of the moon and stars."

But, as The Shadow viewed this exhibit, we can say that shows the beauty of the night and the creatures that walk it. This was a very well-done exhibit.
