LED tree lighting

A quick cap­ture to send to Joel and the fam­ily in Rome. We are com­par­ing trees. This is a shot using my beta copy of Skitch. Great photo util­ity and scrib­bling device. Drove the truck out to Tom’s trees again this year. We have a very dense white spruce. It was the only tree quite tall enough that was left so late in the sea­son. It took 1000 lights to get to a stage where you could see some of the tex­ture of the tree in the dark. We used some LED’s this year you can see the blue­ness in the shot. I couldn’t find any­thing that had a warm glow.

I’m all for LED’s just haven’t found the right color mix yet. The so called white LED’s here are ice blue… I like the color but it isn’t rest­ful like the nor­mal nat­ural bee lights. I’ll have to inves­ti­gate for next year.

The red berry like leds are super. they make the tree look a bit like a holly bush. I love the red ones. I’m hop­ing we can find some bet­ter ideas for next year.

Any­way, thats the lad­der next to the 8.5 foot tree and now it is totally decorated.

This in con­trast is the two foot tree at the stu­dio down­town. We pull it off a shelf and add some led star lights that are run by bat­ter­ies. This year the tree top is a world yo yo.
