Lattice Lights

Currency

It's getting late on a warm summer evening, the lights are on in the house. The moths circle and dance around the chinks of light showing through the verandah lattice. The lizards wait patiently for their evening meal to flutter just that little bit too close....

Careful colour selection gives the appearance of looking at lights through a lattice. The lizards are chasing the moths attracted to the light. Greater interest is achieved if 25 different greens and 25 different blues are used for the lattice.
