Christmas Tree Lane, Altadena


No, this isn't a photograph of Christmas fireworks. It's just an in-camera enhancement of the colorful holiday lights on the deodar trees lining Christmas Tree Lane, a National Historic Landmark. It's actually Santa Rosa Ave. in Altadena, looking north from Calaveras St. The old trees on this street are strung with 10,000 lights every Christmas season, a tradition since 1920.
