Holiday Lights

I was out playing with my new 10-22mm, and thought I would start a thread for people to post pics of holiday lights, since they are so purty.

Things are a bit different in the desert...

they're called christmas lights btw, I'll even accept Hanukkah lights or Jesus lights or Non-denominational savior's birthday celebration lights, but holiday lights common!

Nice shots btw, I'm diggin the first one with the cactus. This reminds me I need to go freeze my butt off and take some Non-denominational savior's birthday celebration lights shots.

I WAS going to post pics of my menorah when lit, but...



Also, I am having a bit of trouble with the focus on this lens. Stuff is so far away, it's tough, even with the live view and 10x magnification, to achieve proper focus. The night time and bright lights didn't make it any easier...

Believe it or not, it is a business complex that just loves to go all out every year.

so do they take out the lights after the holiday season, or they leave it like that all year long?

Nice shots, stogie. The 10-22 is tons of fun. Looks like you're taking right to it.

Nice Christmas Cactus. Must be a bitch putting those lights on and taking them off, though.

+1 My favorite shot out of the bunch.

It looks like they got lazy or just bled out before getting to the top section.
