HIGHPOINT CIRCLE: window shopping

"City sidewalks, busy sidewalks,
Dressed in holiday style
In the air, there's a feeling of Christmas."

I must have taken 50 pictures of my tree in various lighting conditions in the last week and I haven't like any of them, so I did what I normally do when I'm frustrated, I went window shopping. Come along, I'll show you what I saw.

Of course, that little rabbit drew me into the store and look at what I found...I think I was supposed to be looking at the clothes, but they lost me to these wonderful decorations.

I walked down those city sidewalks and spotted this little gem of a window display...

this is a color photo, not a black and white!

(Okay, I did try on a few things here, but didn't purchase anything!

The display was almost effective.)

Still going strong down the sidewalk and around the corner to this...

Yes, I went inside to get this shot (and look around just a little bit too!).

I gathered my strength and went on and saw this beauty...

Now, I'm a traditional girl with Christmas colors, but I really liked this--for someone else. With that being said, you can understand a heart palpitation at the sight of this tree...

I am still wondering why I can get such great pictures of every tree but my own, but the frustration might have been worth it--I got out and enjoyed someone else's hard work and came home with a song in my heart for the season!

Hope your heart is singing too.

Thanks for reading, or just looking.

I've got some more wonderful posts coming soon and I am so excited to share them with you. Come back in a few days and enjoy some more wonderful sights of the season.
