Thousands of Sky Lanterns Rising at Liulichang Night Market

by Greg Hood

Heavy gray clouds press low over the Liulichang night market in Beijing, casting a flat, diffused light across the courtyard. Below, crowds of people in dark winter coats stand amidst rows of wooden stalls and traditional tiled roofs. The air fills with thousands of paper lanterns, their warm orange flames glowing faintly against the overcast sky. Each lantern drifts upward in a dense, chaotic cloud, their silk skins stretching taut as they ascend. The ground remains damp and shadowed, against the rising column of light. A wooden railing in the foreground catches a soft reflection of the nearest lantern's glow.
