Get a sneak peak at the Oak Leaf Light Towers
It looks like someone forgot to turn the power off to one of the towers on the City Plaza site. This was the first time I’ve seen any splash of color on the still under construction public art piece. From what I recently learned, this is but a pale shadow of what these 50+ ft. towers are capable of.

I grew up in a cornfield, so I’ve seen plenty of beige moths – no big deal. But check out this bright orange guy caught on camera by bird blogger Dave. His orange colors against a black grill are quite pretty – for a moth! Dave also has some nice pix of birds this week.

Local burlesque dancer reviews The Roast Grill
A few weeks ago I remember seeing a photo or a blog post that included a photo of a photo shoot happening outside Raleigh’s Roast Grill (tell me if it was yours, I can’t remember). Today, I figured out what the photo shoot was for. It was for burlesque dancer Cherry Bomb NYC.
