Lobster Trap Christmas Tree

Today I had to drive my son and his drum set to Provincetown for his art class at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum, so I walked around for a while taking photos and then settled into an internet cafe to try to catch up on my 365 commenting. It was alot of fun and a nice break from my regular routine.

So appropriate for a New England holiday! The lights add just enough twinkle to a lovely twilight sky.

[Rick Schies]

Sounds like a winner, and so is this creation. Very unique.

[Cherrill]

Oh I love this! How appropriate....and so creative. It is wonderful to see how much effort folks put into their display.....glad to know you had a lovely day Laurie. Another fave!

[David]

Isn't it nice when you find some "down time" and you have your camera and things of interest to shoot. Nice composition and very clear for 1/40th sec.

[Sandie Reardon]

As many times I have been in P-Town over the years, I have to say you have found something new, and very "artsy" for me to appreciate there. Lobster traps for decorations? Very different indeed!

[Terry]

now that took talent

[Brian Buccigrossi]

Awesome :)

[Mike Warren]

Great capture. Very New England :-)

[Susan T]

This is so cool! I love seeing things like this from your part of the country!

[Eric B]

Love how so many things in this picture are "reaching for the sky"

[Shirley Banford]

Awesome shot. Who dreams these things up? I love it.

[Laura Thornton]

Laurie, you scooped me! And I'm already uninspired! Nice shot!

[Christie Hicks]

What a great way to make use of lobster traps in the off season. How very Cape Cod. Love it.

[Trina P Holub]

That's so cool! I've been enjoying the nautical Christmas decor very much. :;-)

[paula goff]

wow, that is quite a Christmas tree! fun seeing Christmas decor that is specific to your area.......definitely wouldn't see one of these in my neck of the woods;)

[Kass]

Very creative!

[Joyce Wells]

I saw something on Chronicle the other night about different type of trees - they had a lobster trap one, but it was in Maine. Very beautiful shot!

[Cheryl]

Instant fav- you have no idea!
love love love it!

[robinwarner]

ummmmm WOW...what a find...

[Ellen E]

so interesting!

[Paula Cook-Farkas]

Sometimes a break in routine is all that is needed to recharge your batteries. This is too cool! So many ways to decorate for the Holidays!

[Sharon]

There was one on Chronicle the other night 30 feet tall made from green wire lobster traps in Rockport Maine (I think) and they filmed the people making it. It was a lot of work. They were really proud of it as I am sure the people who made this one are. Yankee ingenuity. Great Shot!
