Here’s a slideshow of Dale Chihuly‘s dazzling glass sculpture installation, Desert Towers, which is part of the permanent collection at Phoenix’s Desert Botanical Gardens.

Happy New Year to everyone!
If you think the Mayans might be on to something, you can countdown on my Mayan End of Calendar page, listed in the sidebar, under “Pages.”

Beautiful Nature!
Comment by asukaanimea January 1, 2012 @ 12:12 amThose sculptures are sure interesting! As far as the Mayan predictions, well, their civilization didn’t turn out so well for them and I will be very surprised if their predictions will either.
