Yesterday evening we went to the Luminations Winter Celebration at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center here in Austin. The "price" of admission was a donation of 2 cans of food each for a local food bank.

It's hard to capture the magical effect of over 3,000 luminarias, 5,000 twinkle lights, and strands of gorgeous white & copper lights strung across a Texas stone courtyard where a steel drum band dressed in Hawaiian shirts was drumming carols. And it's hard to not get a blurry picture when you are photographing lights at night without a tripod! But here's a little bit of Texas Hill Country holiday cheer for all of you:
Happy Holidays Y'All!
