Christmas Tree Decorated

Every year I look at our Christmas tree and try to get a decent shot of it; I have yet to hit upon the right way to include the lights without burnout whilst also having a reasonable view of the tree;  Again I failed this year - I may try an HDR treatment before I give up!  Meanwhile, I always enjoy seeing the tree decorations, many of which bring back memories from long ago when they were bought.  This set includes decorations made from bamboo leaves bought in Hong Kong 25 years ago and Thai silk decorations bought about the same time.
