Antigua’s street lighting
A detail shot of Antigua’s street lighting. For sure, function and beauty do not have fight each other. Here you can see the simplicity of the arrangement brings beauty and function to something as mundane as street lights. To top it off, the lighting poles are in harmony with the Spanish colonial town even though electricity did not exist when the city was founded.

those lamps were put up in more recent years, a project lead by the ex husband of my boss’ daughter, mario (i can never remember his last name) previously the street lamps had all been mis matched and rather ugly looking, this was done as much of our cities electrical wiring was also laid underground. (a very effort consuming task)
