Christmas Lights

Somehow I just can’t get the hang of photographing Christmas lights. All the shops are dripping with them, the Christmas markets are ablaze with them and the pedestrian streets are all aglow. But it doesn’t matter where I point my lens my images just don’t look ‘right’. But there’s no mistake, Christmas is just a few days away and a blog without Christmas cheer is just not on, so below I’ve included just two of yesterday afternoon’s efforts taken in the town and one taken in the garden upon returning home.

Despite its simplicity I’m quite pleased with the garden image. The logs symbolising Yule logs and  a few fairy lights to give it a seasonal flavour – Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone!
