Cascading Rows of Color and Other Magical Mystical Moments of the Children’s Hospital Tower

The mood of the Dichroic glass on Children’s Hospital tower is ever changing. The glass reflects mother nature’s current state of mind

Seemingly at 3:15 AM, under the light of a full moon, the Dichroic glass endeavors to trigger the crystal elements on the glass fins to produce a semblance of color.
By 5:57 AM, the Dichroic glass on the the Children’s Hospital tower was showing signs of waking from its slumber–reflecting light from the eastern sky.
A closeup of the towers early morning (5:57 AM) rising and the Dichroic glass beginning to reflect a little color.
Around 11:00 AM from inside the yard shooting from an angle the Dichroic glass begins to show its colors.
