Hampton Coliseum-Holiday lighting ©2008, B. Payden Photography, LLC

Every year for the holidays the Hampton Coliseum changes it's normal nighttime illumination from white lighting to colored lighting with a very dramatic effect. Opened in 1970 the Hampton Coliseum is a multi-use venue which is owned by the City of Hampton. The Coliseum has featured many sporting events as well as countless musical shows including Elvis, The Grateful Dead, Phish and the Rolling Stones.

Beautiful photo.  Although I must be hungry, because it made me think of candy corn and now I want something to eat.

Wow, that is stunning!  Kudos to you for the picture and Kudos to the city for doing it.  We get a Christmas tree on top the space needle in Seattle, which is fun, but not quite as dramatic or beautiful!

Happy holidays!

Bryant- I have some red and green candy corn at my house right now.  Blue is the only color I've never seen.  It really is a truly beautiful shot.

That's beautiful. The colors are spectacular and the water looks like glass. Actually, the colors look like candy. Umm. That's a good thing. LOL

Thank you Mary, it was worth standing outside freezing at sunset for an hour to get just the perfect shot after I saw how it turned out.
