Other lights are commercial advertising panels, laser effects for entertainment, incorrect lighting of religious buildings and cultural sights and other more important buildings. Incorrect lighting has lately  occurred to protect buildings and other surfaces because  it is believed  that such buildings and surfaces are protected better if they are illuminated.

What is more, monuments and cultural sights look better at night if illuminated. All the countries and towns consider this important. However such important  buildings illuminated in an incorrect way are not a pride but a shame for them. 

The below picture : A powerful reflector light illuminates one  wall on such a building. The larger part of light is reflected away from the wall into the sky. The consequences of such illumination are visible very far. Unfortunately there are a lot of light bodies in front of such buildings and we lose the majority of light energy which goes into the sky. What is worrying is that the majority of buildings are illuminated in this way.

   

A solution: /see the below picture/
The building is illuminated with a lot of small  lights which are placed on the walls or on high light posts, all of them pointing downwards. Such illumination is the best.
