Page 1  |  Page 2 The National Christmas Tree and More Every year, the US Government lights the National Christmas Tree.  I wanted to go to see the lighting ceremony.  It occurred at 5:00 PM on a work day.  Furthermore, they "sold out" of tickets to the concert/ceremony.  We decided to just go the night they lit it and see what we could see. After we viewed the Christmas trees, we walked around the National Mall and took pictures. I took my digital camera and my tripod.  I took some long exposure night pictures that, I think, are some of the best pictures I have ever taken. This is the Ronald Reagan building. Anyhow, these are some pictures I took to get acquainted with my camera at night.       Sorry for the lousy picture, but this dude was playing bagpipes on the sidewalk at 6:30PM. It was WAY too cold for a kilt.    The National Christmas Tree    The National Christmas Tree    There are 50+ trees surrounding the National Christmas Tree.  One for each state and territory.    The National Christmas Tree    There were model trains and little towns beneath the National Christmas Tree.          This is a long exposure of the model train. It wasn't really going that fast!    This is the White House.  I put my mark on this to protect my picture.  If you would like to use the unmodified image, email me.    The White House    Us, in front of the White House.    Without the flash, the fence wasn't so ugly.    We are trying to pose for our picture that we were planning to send with our Christmas card.       The Christmas tree for the state of Florida    The Christmas tree ornament for the state of Florida.  It is a picture of the old capitol building in front of the new capitol building.  It was made by an artist in Tallahassee, FL.     The National Nativity Scene!
