Outdoor Christmas lights at the residence of Clarence and Libby Huie in Lewisville, North Carolina (Forsyth County) - Deb Phillips, photographer.
OK, I confess to tampering with this photo! But I couldn’t resist! The scene really called for a touch of snow!

After all, there were Christmas lights in the front yard, the side yard, and the back yard. There were reindeer, a snowman, a bear on skis, and neon-like snowflakes flashing in 3/4 time.

There’s even more to delight your eyes at 315 Graydon Court in Lewisville, the home of Clarence and Libby Huie. Besides an array of lighted animals, candy canes, Christmas trees and other subjects, there’s a lighted nativity scene in the back yard that adds a bit of much-needed serenity in this bustling season.

Don’t let the season pass without driving by the Huie home to see their gift of lights to the community. Meanwhile, you can see a few more photos of the lights in the Huie Family photo gallery.

Oh, and do check the weather before you head over to see the lights. You never know — it just might be snowing!

Autumn yard art in Lewisville, North Carolina (Forsyth County) - Deb Phillips, photographer.

There she was, looking so radiant, so…ummm… “outstanding in her field,” if I may abuse the pun! But she’s not alone. Located in numerous yards throughout Lewisville are other notable characters decked out in similarly fashionable duds.

    The challenge for me has first been to see things as they are, whether a portrait, a city street, or a bouncing ball. In a word, I have tried to be objective. What I mean by objectivity is not the objectivity of a machine, but of a sensible human being with the mystery of personal selection at the heart of it. The second challenge has been to impose order onto the things seen and to supply the visual context and the intellectual framework - that to me is the art of photography. —Berenice Abbott
