Not sure if we can sticky this one but maybe we can get some house shots or some Christmas light displays here.

I should have something up by Tuesday. I'd find last year's LMS Tree lighting shots but I'd rather keep it current to this year. I know there's a couple of places with lights up, including a race car driver who's house is right across the street from where I am (and yes, he does have an inflatable).

Or we could just keep bumping it up with newer pictures. That should sustain it enough to keep it on the first page.

I figure if I take the photo at dusk it should turn out ok or any photos I take. I am horrible with night shots and know nothing about shutter speed or apertures

The problem with nighttime shots is that you need to have your shutter open for more than a second. That's more than enough time to have just the shake of you pushing down the shutter button blurring up your shot. You almost need a tripod and a cable release for a remote if you really want to do it right (I have the tri pod but not the cable release). Your digital camera may have a night mode to use which should help take something pretty good. If all else fails go automatic and hope for the best.
