Christmas market at the Dresden Frauenkirche. They have real sheep in the manger scene!

The lights are pretty!

They are, thank you! I'm so happy that I finally found the right button on my camera to photograph them properly. Before it often was overlit and did not look good.

That's so pretty!!! The real sheep is a bold move, let's hope they don't start chewing on the figures!!

[dieastra]

Thank you!
The sheep have been there for years, I think we would have noticed by now if they were interested in the figures ;)
They were a big hit with the people, at first it was in front at the fence and got petted but it was too dark to get a proper picture.

The lights are so pretty! I wish our town did more Christmas lights, but it's so small that they only hang snowflakes on the light poles. lol.

Aw, snowflakes is better than nothing!
Yes, it was all so beautiful and I wanted to share with you guys! Thankfully I now know which button to press on the photocamera to get these results. Before they often were too bright.

Thank you! I also love them, they really brought me into a Christmas mood. There also was brass music!

I am so lucky I found the right button on my photocamera. Before it often was overlit, but now I know how to photograph lights properly.

Beautiful ligts! It's February already, and they take me back to Christmas time. I hope the sheep didn't mind the bright light. I like how the sheep is in the front, and baby Jesus hidden in the back :D

Thank you! I am so glad I finally found the right camera setting to take such pictures. Before they always were overlit and too bright.

There is a place in the back where the sheep can go to if they don't like being in public anymore. In fact this one was right at the front of the fence in the beginning and people petted it, but it was too close, I could not get a good picture of it. Then it went and laid down like this.
