Neon lights for the holidays

Tonight, Susan and I went on the Museum of Neon Art’s Holiday Lights tour. Being that it’s December, and the tour was after dark, it was cold by L.A. standards. We dressed warmly and brought along a couple of blankets, since the whole tour is conducted from the upper deck of a double-decker sightseeing bus.
It was a tremendously entertaining tour, but sadly, it didn’t transfer into photographs well. To take good photos at night, the camera has to be on a rock-solid platform to hold it steady enough. And the upper deck of the bus just wasn’t a steady enough platform. So if you want to see the lights, you’ll just have to take the tour. But it was certainly Great Fun.

I had trouble getting good photos on my 2 tours too. I actually got more the first time http://www.flickr.com/photos/jodilynn/sets/72157594199745563/ and pretty much nothing the second. I would love to take it this time of year with all of the holiday lights added into the mix.
