In the Tunnel of Light

The photo club was asked by Middle Smithfield Township to photograph the community tree lighting ceremony so we bundled up and went to Echo Lake Park to record the festivities. This is definitely not my forte when it comes to picture taking so I'm glad many of my fellow photo club members are more experienced at night shots. However I did like this one taken as a mom and daughter walked though one of the light tunnels set up for the evening. It wasn't too long after this that Santa arrived and fireworks lit up the night sky!

I love it!

I think you did well. This gives a good sense of the lights in the night

[Milanie]

Real pretty shot - we have one of these arches by our courthouse and it's fun to catch the kids in there at night.

[Taffy]

Wonderful repetition of the arches, and so well captured.

[Babs]

I think this is a lovely shot. Glad you got help with night scenes, your teacher did a good job and the result is perfect.

Thank you Francoise, Coro Jo, Kathy, Milanie, Taffy, Babs, Dorre, Marilyn, Haskar and Wendy!

I appreciate all your views, comments and favs! I have determined that should we go again next year, I'll study up and use my T3i with the tripod- especially for the fireworks.
