Park festival lights up wet, dreary night

"LOVELY night for a stroll," said one of the stewards at Rouken Glen Park last night, in cheerful defiance of the incessant rain and the mud under his feet.

Despite the miserable weather, the first night of Electric Glen, East Renfrewshire's first-ever lighting festival, seemed to be a resounding success.

Throughout the picturesque park, artful, subtle lighting illuminated bridges, waterfalls and tree trunks.

Lights followed the curve of the boating lake. Trees took on interesting new shadows from lights directed at them.
