Picture
Caption: What is the "Field of Light" you might ask? Well, the Field of Light is an art installation from UK artist Bruce Munro.
Bruce has had exhibitions of his Field of Light piece all over the world but not many people know that the idea was first hatched in Uluru on a holiday many years ago.
With Bruce's work becoming internationally renowned a media piece attracted the right kind of attention and Bruce found himself on a plane to Australia to discuss the idea of bringing the piece home to where it was originally born.
WHAT A STORY!

These lights are solar powered and arranged into pods. The colors change gradually and softy with colors complimentary to the environment.
Sitting in the Field of Light is an overwhelming experience. All the color, all the glow and in a place known for its natural beauty and ruggedness. ๐ก๐๐กโค๏ธ๐ก

Caption: Along with nearly 50 domestic and international media I attended the official media launch with Voyages.
I am overwhelmed with how this piece of art has already brought people together and how it makes people feel.
I took my first photos during the launch but had the absolute priviledge of accompanying Bruce Munro's official photographer Mark back to the field the following evening.

There are various ways that you can experience the Field of Light from a basic ticket price up to a VIP dining experience. There will also be opportunities to go out at dawn to see the sun rise over the fading glow of the lights.

Caption: As I keep saying, if you've been delaying a trip to Uluru then 2016 might be the year to get your butt there.
As an official "Mate" of the Northern Territory I can promise that you won't regret it.
