The Electric Meter Dial Wizzes Round

I have spent the last two weeks on the look out for the best outdoor Christmas light display, this evening I went to do our Christmas food shopping and on the way home I noticed more and more people have switched on their lights for the first time today. The house lights produce a magical expectation away from the high street shops with their bright “come and buy me” illumination that floods the area but dissipates the effect.

I had already made up my mind that this house was going to feature after noticing it last year, little did I realise at the time I was researching a photograph to be taken in 12 months. Their light display not only goes round 3 sides of the house, including the garden fences and drive but also from the front of the house it flows on into a window display through to the living room, I thought possibly the owner has some kind of retail window dressing experience or theatrical background it certainly has given the impression of professionalism about it.
