The flying dragon

Tim caught sight of a display on this block when driving home from work, so we walked back over there later and found three houses that had some pretty showy decorations on them. They were all hard to photograph (see previous picture), even with a very high ISO, but this was the most difficult as it was just so dark, and the dragon’s wings were going up and down. Its eyes were also redder than they appear here.

There is a whole new crop of Halloween
displays out there. Hopefully they can withstand the high winds tonight.
