Digital experts Illuminos are behind the lumiere creations， using special projectors to beam stunning pictures onto the Chinese arch and nearby buildings.

Illuminos artist， Rob Vale， said: "We're thrilled to be providing the video projection element of this year's New Year celebrations.

QUITO Cheap Air Max Sale , March 13 (Xinhua) -- Ecuadorian Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino Friday rebuked Sweden for taking nearly three years to agree to question Julian Assange, founder of the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks, at Ecuador's embassy in London.

"News item: Swedish prosecutor Marianne Ny agrees to question Assange at our embassy in London Cheap Nike Air Max 1 Outlet , 1000 days later!" Patino posted on Twitter.

"From day 1 we offered to let them question him and they failed to," said Patino, adding "if they had accepted Ecuador's offer ... 1000 days ago Cheap Nike Air Max 2017 Outlet , it would have saved everybody a lot of money and trouble."
