Hi Michael, Thank you so much. I took these last year and hope to improve a little this year. I think to show off the decorations to their best advantage, I will go the night before the party and use a tripod.

Nice night photos! I love the "effects" William - do you have a subscription to picnik or is that available in their free version?

Hi Roberta, I have a paid subscription and I think the slideshow and snow effect is part of the paid version. It is only $29 per year.

William - very peaceful, very beautiful. No music is striking first, but then it feels very good.

William - I remember a couple summers ago, a teenager (girl) put on Facebook that she was having a birthday party.  AND thousands of people showed up.  What did you say the address of your neighborhood event is?  I want to make certain to put it on my calendar. . .LOL

William~so so gorgeous. You capture the total beauty and elegance of the season in your area. I loved this video. Peacock Lane in Portland has done the same thing for many many years. It takes dedicated neighbors to do this!

Thanks for sharing your beautiful photographs. Your presentation is outstanding and should be an inspiration for others that are taking holiday photographs.

William, I love the display with the igloo and polar bears.  I'd forgotten that San Diego stays green year round lol.  Have a wonderful holiday with your family and friends.

Beautiful neighborhood participation. Have you sent the slide show to all your neighbors?

Is that a Chanukah house on the street?

You are so good with your camera and sharing with us.
