Look at Us! We're The Gates

Not so fast... In 2005 the artist Christo and his wife finally realized their dream of doing an installation in New York's Central Park. The exhibit, known as The Gates, was comprised of eye-catchingly bright orange banners and opened to throngs of people strolling the park to take in their exuberant glory.

And truly they were a sight to behold.

But I happened upon them one snowy evening when the orange had to take a back seat to the lamps and snow.
