Default Outdoor Shopping Center Xmas Photos

There is a charming little outdoor shopping center where I live called "Birkdale Village." I just thought I'd share some photos I took of there recently, as they get decked out for Christmas.

I love the last one, too. Looks like it was taken during that magical 'blue hour'. Very pretty with the moon included.

Yeah, I stuck around for this photo off a tip somebody gave me. Somebody on a bench saw me taking photos and said he was there the night before to enjoy the festivities. He told me at one point the moon had come out and was hanging over the tree. He said, "It looked just like a post card." LOL. So I hung around an extra hour until I saw that post-card quality shot and went wild with it. The photo really took itself.

What a fun set! I love the shadows in the first one. The third is my favorite, though -- how wonderful to capture fall and Christmas together! Thanks for sharing these.

Love the long shadows in the first and the lines and shapes of the third.
Very nice indeed!
