Week 9: Dashing through the.... Sand

I felt as if this was fitting for the first day of December. Christmas lights!! Although I have had the place decorated for the past week, seeing Christmas lights warms the heart.

It’s something about that glow that draws the viewer in. It was always a tradition on Christmas Eve to go see the lights around the neighborhoods. I think what makes them so fascinating is it makes the tree or house the lights are on seem bigger then they are. You see a tree at night not lit up and it falls flat but when the lights turn on, the tree really comes to life and it’s almost as if you can feel the needles growing two inches past where they originally are.

I also enjoy my Christmas tree because of the colors and it reminded me that it is ok to use colors and that it is always pretty to see the blending of different saturation’s ’
