Amazing Christmas Tree
This decoration is in one of our local garden centre’s.
It’s one of the most amazing visual sights you will see, can’t get the true effect from pictures, but a good idea. Ist taken with flash second without.
It stands about 18′ tall, and is made from a white wire frame covered in led’s. It is truely a sight to behold.

yep that does look good martin …i was just thinking driving into the town tonight how a lot of these peoples lecky bill must be horrific at this time of year (english translation "lecky" electricity 😀 )

Looks great martin, tasteful in its own way… even though bright as hell. i like it! :lol1:
this video below i am sure everyone knows about by now. but here it is again, must have taken for every to setup.
The national lottery are now doing a sort or rip-off version of it on TV just now. i am sure they could be hung for it if it has been copyrighted in some form, if it hasnt, why have they altered the music and even the lighting display is same, but recreated slightly different?
anyway, its a bad day if the lottery isnt paying the guy some sort of royalties…you have to watch it all to appreciate what hes done. :lol1:
you will need sound (-music)

This display was the work of Carson Williams, a Mason, Ohio, electrical engineer who spent about three hours sequencing the 88 Light-O-Rama channels that controlled the 16,000 Christmas lights in his annual holiday lighting spectacular (from Christmas 2004). His 2005 display includes over 25,000 lights that he spent nearly two months and $10,000 to hook up. So that the Williams’ neighbors aren’t disturbed by constant noise, viewers driving by the house are informed by signs to tune in to a signal broadcast over a low-power FM radio station to hear the musical accompaniment.
The rough quality of the video has led some viewers to believe it was put together in stop-action form from still photographs, but that is an artifact of the high compression used in the clip circulated via e-mail. Mr. Williams has posted instructions for recreating his "Wizard in Winter" sequencing, and another of his choreographed Christmas light music shows can be viewed here.
Carson’s Christmas display proved so popular that it was featured in a Miller Lite beer commercial in December 2005.

Thats Brilliant Rob!
is it me, or does that tree not look slightly spooky?
-
Thanks for that Rob, I hadn’t seen it before. It’s excellent. 😀
The electronics bit is right down my alley, and I don’t mind a bit of classical music either.
Regards, Roger

first I’ve seen that too. That’s brilliant! 😀
-
very clever…
music is not very ‘festive’ though .. is it??
-
Fantastic 😀
No chance of "Keeping up with the Joneses" 😕

The people playing it are from a snowy enough place, so relatively festive.
