HOW TO - Take great photos of holiday lights

LightsGoood tips for taking photos during the holidays, although I prefer photo by laser light... "There are some photographic subjects where it makes little difference whether you use a digital camera or a film-based model to capture the image. The colors and warm glow of holiday lights is not one of them. If you're not careful, you can run into trouble with a digital camera. All photographers interested in getting great holiday photos should read this article." Link.

They have these every season, some good reads. NYIP is a very good online photography correspondence class for those a little too busy to attend a class in your area. Google NYIP Students Roundtable for an online group started by and for NYIP students.
