Featured as the header image in a blog about Holiday Lights by the world famous: B&H Photo Video and Pro Audio in 2017. Below is an image found within the article that I also took.

Coincidentally, in 2017 Tower Hill Botanic Garden used the same photo for their informative event mailers that B&H used for their article on Holiday Lights in Massachusetts.
