THE ONE INSTALLATION
After successfully negotiating the delicate phasing out of the climbing of Uluru, Ayers Rock Resort was in need of some other attractions to entice and dazzle visitors. It found it in the form of Field of Light, a stunning sculptural installation, designed by British artist Bruce Munro, that twinkles into life in the desert each night. The installation, consisting of 50,000 light bulbs on stems that sway in the desert breeze, was meant to be temporary but it proved so popular that the resort has poured a fortune into extending its life.

THE ONE RIDE
Dramatic footage shared to Twitter on January 20 captures a firefighting aircraft retardant-bombing a brushfire burning near homes in Carlsbad, California. The brushfire prompted evacuations; however, residents were allowed to return to their homes and no injuries or damaged properties were reported. Credit: Rebecca Wheeler via Storyful
