Water Lantern Festival (Chinese: 水灯节) 🇺🇸

The Water Lantern Festival in Ann Arbor is a gentle, glowing celebration where people gather by the water to decorate and release lanterns carrying hopes, memories, and wishes. As the sun sets, the lake comes alive with floating lights—each one a quiet story drifting under the night sky.

But what I love most isn’t the lanterns themselves—it’s the people. Their reactions, laughter, barefoot joy in the sand. The most enjoyable moments are the ones where I get to capture love, happiness, and freedom, all shining brighter than any lantern.
