I don’t know about you – but I love seeing and photographing Christmas Lights. It doesn’t matter whether it’s lights on houses in my neighborhood, lights in downtown Washington DC or a light display at a local botanical garden – I love seeing them.
One thing I have noticed over the years as I’ve photographed various light displays is that I’ll see people taking a picture – looking at the back of their camera – and realizing that they aren’t seeing what they hoped to see on the back of their camera.
So I’ve updated a video I made a few years ago – 3 Tips for Photographing Christmas Lights. Hope it helps you take some wonderful photos this holiday season.
