a very good morning to you all :o)
i am sorry i did`nt get to everyone yesterday but had connection problems again last night and whatever it was put itself right this morning .
these two houses are up near my sons .they are lit up like this every year ,each year adding a bit more .people come from miles around to see this spectacle if thats the right word lol :o)..in fairness they collect for childrens charity`s not forced though ,there are just some collection boxes placed near the house .you are also invited to see the house inside which is decorated just the same .where everything is plugged in is beyond me kind of reminds me a bit of jeffs spaghetti junction :o)..
have a great day and thanks as always for looking .i truly apprieciate your friendship :o)

There are always a few who are over the top; I have one right down my street. But I guess it's the season and sounds like these people at least do some good. Very nice shot, Mick!!

Thanks for sharing this! In Berlin we have some places with these houses, too...People come away dozens of kilometers, to have a look, and the local TV station reports about. These maniacs live the whole year only for Christmas and think about new attractions in spring, summer and autumn... Do they have a special contract with the regional power plant?.....LOL German Christmas is normally not so full of colors, but in the last years we have american and asian influences here. Try to catch the christmas spirit in these days, but nothing gets right... I risk a nervous breakdown.

You beat me to it Mick!!! We have houses in bay the same. I love all this, it is such a wonder for the children, I don't think people ever go over the top, good to enter into the spirit of the lights.. Fun for kids of all ages. Wonderful night shot, Mick. a cracking capture that makes me smile. Hugs for a happy day. Di. xx

Excellent picture. How do they keep from blowing a fuse. If we use the blow dryer and the wall heater at the same time we trip a breaker...lol... :) Todd

Excessive, indeed! LOL! That is a LOT of decorating. We have 'em here too, of course. (I think they need more stuff on the roof.) :) Excellent capture!

We used to have one just down the road from my house Mick, but I think they have moved, there is nothing at all there this year. He had the roof covered as well, tons of lights. Excellent capture and I'm glad I'm not paying their electricity bill. Bravo!!!!!

Good heavens! You would think they'd have a lot to do for the holiday other than change burnt out bulbs. LOL. I would have to forgo presents under the tree to pay for all this electricity!

Fantastic!!!!

These OTT decorations seem to get everywhere...here in rural Ireland too..do raise a smile...their carbon footprints must be of Yeti proportions! Nice capture Mick.

I think yes it's a good night photo. But the subject even if it for charity it to over the top. With global warming just think how much power they are using. I can think of far better ways the raise money for charity. I would hate to live opposite them.
alhak
we too have lots of houses just like this one and some collect for charity also, which i think is a great idea. the power company even gives you a discount for being a registered xmas light house..lovely shot

Arrive the Christmas and I want to give you a that big hug, as of bear!! Merry Christmas, I wish it to you of all heart, from my Beautiful Argentina!! Roby ;O)

Its certainly a spectacle and I bet kids love it, you see news reports don't you? where the whole stret are competing. Even if I could afford to do all this I think I would buy a new camera instead lol.

Excellent Shot!!

Looks like they have a bit of everything! Well done! Merry Christmas.

Splendid Mick!

Excellent capture of a, maybe, a little bit excessive Christmas decoration! The quality is more important than quantity!!!
