Could be that fiery red was selected as the portal color for The Isle of Berk to connect with story of Hiccup using the forge to create his many contraptions. Portal seen at twilight from Helios Grand Hotel.

Photos of RGB floodlight testing in The Isle of Berk. Combinations of Red, Green, and Blue lamps create countless colors in the spectrum. Seeing only one lamp at a time identifies a lamp that is beginning to have problems. Floods overlap. This method identifies them easier.

Spotlights were recently added at the base of Constellation Carousel at the fountain. However, not yet seen in operating the park's lighting or the closing show.

Seems like rays of light from Constellation Carousel debuted last night in the nightly show. Very bright changing colors for the whole show. 3rd photo the night before. Verified in video that only the short blue segment was seen then ... about same for the past year.
