Chihuly's Blue Chandelier

While visiting the Missouri Botanical Garden in sub-freezing temperatures in attempt to catch MOBOT in snow, I inadvertently visited Chihuly's Blue Chandelier hours before it was to be dismantled. Missouri Chihuly fans fret not, as its dismantling is only temporary. The Ridgeway Center, where it hangs, is undergoing roof renovation and it is being removed in order to preserve its safety. They expect it to be back up by April.

Here's a few pictures to tide us over until then:
