Blink 2022 in Cincinnati, Ohio

Posted on October 14, 2022 by Travel Spirit

Last night I went with a friend to Blink in Cincinnati, Ohio. It’s an annual global art display, spanning 30-blocks, with 39 large-scale projection mappings, murals, interactive light sculptures, music from over 80 bands, and diverse entertainment from both local and international artists. It lasts for four evenings. We walked about three miles to see about two-thirds of it.

This is in an area called Over-the-Rhine

Washington Park, also in the Over-the-Rhine area, had some beautiful installations.

Fountain Square

There’s even a parade

The beautiful John A. Roebling Suspension bridge crossing the Ohio River into Covington, Kentucky

I highly recommend taking a road trip to visit Cincinnati during this event!

Lumenocity is an annual event held here in Over the Rhine, Cincinnati, Ohio at Cincinnati Music Hall. I was invited to the dress rehearsal by a friend and met her and two other girlfriends to have a bite to eat beforehand at a restaurant called Abigail Street right around the corner from Music Hall. The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and Cincinnati Ballet perform under the white tent shown below while you’re treated to an elaborate and flamboyant light show on the exterior of Music Hall…

Earlier in the evening at Abigail Street Restaurant, I captured a selfie in the mirror of the lovely shabby chic ladies’ restroom…

Sunday Funday

Posted on July 9, 2013 by Travel Spirit

It had been quite rainy for days around Cincinnati, so when the weather was nice Sunday afternoon I had itchy feet. I took a solo trip to Fountain Square and Washington Park in Downtown Cincinnati. Washington Park is so cool! They have a water feature with fun and unpredictable bursts of water. I tried the silhouette function on my camera…the Nikon D5100. I love this effect….
