Alexandria Parade of Lights

I totally took the wrong camera for this event. It's a night time parade of boats decorated for Christmas. It's a very cool show that, for some reason, I've never heard of. And my DSLR would have been a better bet for this event, but I didn't feel like hauling it down there. So I went with my trusty Fuji x100s. They would have been hard shots with the DSLR as well. Way too dark, and too much movement on the boat.

Eileen invited a bunch of people to watch the show on her boat at the Alexandria docks. Great place to see the parade. It was 35 degrees outside and after an hour, I lost the feeling in my toes. I'm not made for cold weather.

Anyway, all my pictures are horrible, but I did manage to get one of Eileen's boat after the parade.


The lights at the top right are a plane flying by. We are right on the flight path to National.
