Description
On Dec. 25th I went to downtown in Houston, looking for the traditional Christmas lights decorations, but seriously, the downtown was looking more like an abandoned city than a city on Christmas Day. Just a very few walkers, some more homeless dudes, and that's it! Then my brother proposed Galleria, a town next to Houston, a place where he said is inhabited by rich people and for sure the City Hall spent more money to put some Christmas decorations on streets. And he was right!
When I got back home, I had to do some work on this one, transferring those lit trees (that are on sidewalk and median) from another shot, then added the moon...
I know it's far from a perfect shot, but I hope you gonna like it...
Oh, and one more thing: being away from home, due to my job, I'm not always able to answer y'all!
And a joke for the cold season!
Did you hear about the two blondes who froze to death in a drive-in movie?
They had gone to see "Closed for the Winter"!

Nicely done, Eddie.
A great image, well done.
Wowww super shot here well done
I'm not rich, but I always visit the Galleria section when I go to Houston...and I was there around Christmas time! Nice work on this image!
very beautiful night capture
It really is a lovely place Eddie, nice capture
For a moment I thought, Christmas was just around the corner again... happy, happy, joy ,joy... and why shouldn't everyday be like Christmas ? You really did a fantastic job with the manipulations in this shot,the big bad moon added an extra dimension to it! BB p.s. here is a blonde joke for you: "How do you know, if a blonde has been using your computer ? You find correction fluid on the screen !"
Great night shot! cute joke
Wow great image!
Nice postwork! Eds, that joke was a real groaner lol.
I remember when the Galleria was built and I went once...but it was full of very expensive shops and even a postcard was out of my range. This is lovely and you did a great job putting it together.
How amazing! I had no idea that this was a photomanipulation, which just goes to show what I know... I love the clarity of this and that moon really makes this shot. For some reason it reminds me of a "Seasonal" photograph I used to see in the long vanished pages of OMNI Magazine...STILL my favorite magazine, though it's no longer in existence. Great work!
A great job with a few lighting !
Shining work.
Looks cool, i like the moon and buildings.
Very beautiful.Love the mood you created.

Guess I missed that place, I thought The Galleria was just that Fancy Mall in Houston. Nice bit of manipulation Peace
