redsea300 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 This is my third year. Yes I have mini trees, arches, lawn lights etc. This year I added a 4 foot tall 6 foot diameter igloo(25 channels 1 is for strobes) for the snowmen to hang out at. I also added a 20 foot tall Mega Tree 71 channels(16, R,B,G,W 6 for star and one for strobes). Now for the topper I added a 10 foot tall MEGA STAR. It has 30 channels on the outer star, 1 red led rope light for the middle star and 1 White led rope light for the inner Star. Yes 32 channels total. It is sitting on my roof. I have wanted to do this for 3 years now and finally did it. I have not seen it elsewhere. I shot this last night with my Samsung cell Phone Let me know what you think.Thanks and EnjoyDon C.http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lights-On-Minorca/111689562210405?v=app_2392950137&ref=ts#!/video/video.php?v=1512843020155 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubado Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Holy Crap, that's cool! I'd swear the star was a CCR. Do you have details on the star and willing to share? Was the igloo in the video? I wasn't able to notice it. Loved the piano work too.Your cellphone does better video than my camera. :? I plan on making another attempt tonight with my camera, not happy with results so far.

scubado Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I hate to say it, but I don't see the canes either. At the left end of the arches I can make out the snowmen from the glow of the other lights and Santa at the other end of the arches. Am I going blind or is your camera panned in the wrong direction when it's on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsea300 Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 Yes the canes are not used i just realized. The igloo looks like an upside down bowl right in front on the snowman. It is on in the beginning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
