Local town near me, Rochester decks out their whole downtown in lights for X-mas. So when I took my girlfriend out for a nice dinner a couple days ago I took some pictures with my Canon Rebel XT. I made no attempt to make these professional, didnt even take my tripod. Some I actually took while we were driving just sitting the camera out the sunroof. But a couple turned out semi cool so I thought I'd share. And also none are touched up or cropped so if the composition is bad sue me :p

Also these are full size. Just be warned for those of you on dial-up

loading those took quite a while over 1.5Mbps DSL. about the full-size part, it's not necessary on high-ISO slow-shutter images.
other than that, cool lights.

We'll probably drive through there on Wednesday. As soon as I saw the title I thought of Rochester and when I saw you were the author, I figured that's what it was about. I'm considering going downtown to take pictures too.

Bummer! The bbzzdd site seems to be down. Did Christmas pics overload it? I'll try again tomorrow or the next day. :(

OK - bbzzdd is semi fixed. I could view them just fine - nio more than a 5 second wait.

I say semi-fixed, because I could not upload anything.

Those are very unique shots. The sun roof was a very clever idea - puts nice perspective in play.

Thanks for sharing!

Merry Christmas!
