 These are a popular item at booths in the Christmas markets. The stars are made of paper and illuminated with an electric light bulb inside. Quite pretty!

I really like this shot. Those glowing stars jump out and grab your attention and then you see the overhead strands in the background. What a lovely place this must be to shop!

ABSOLUTELY**B*E*A*U*T*I*F*U*L!!!The colors and the wonderfully sharp details on the stars and lights are great! Love this shot. Bold brilliant reds of the stars really capture the attention - perfect for attracting the attention of customers at this market fair. I also love that we see the lights strung up above and the people shopping in this open market square. It makes me feel as if I was there looking at all the lovely sights. New favorite! BTW Karen has a good point this would be a good shot for the Star challenge:-)
