Show us your local public Christmas tree

One of the few real trees thst I have seen this year.

This is not a real tree, but I find the image more enterprising that most of the lights in the streets here, most of which seem to me very generic.

This is from the Christmas market at Piece Hall in Halifax. I deliberately took it OOF, because I thought the lights looked really great.

This is what it was like 'in focus'

This tree is in front of the Wiener Rathaus (Vienna Town Hall), where there is a Christmas Market in progress. 80 years old, 85 centimetres (33.5") trunk diameter, 34 metres (110 ft) high spruce (Fichte) from Rastenfeld in Lower Austria, about 100km (62 miles) from Vienna.

The side view:

Here are a couple of stalls from the Christmas Market:

The other side of the Ringstrasse, in front of the Burgtheater, I stopped to talk with a lady who was turning the handle of a small organ with perforated rolls which had Christmas tunes cut into them. The pipes were well in tune and made a sweet sound. Some of the figures actually danced.

A short distance away, also on the Ringstrasse, is another tree, outside one of the most famous coffee houses in the city.

Tree lighting or setting on fire? 😂😂😂😂

I once went into this store -- once... 😉

I count 25 trees in the thread so far. Thank you all for your participation.

A Merry Christmas to all!
