Decked out for Christmas

It was after sunset when I realised I hadn't got out the door yet. I took the weekend off from paperwork and all that entails, so that was my primary task for the day.  But I didn't want to stay in the house the whole day, so I quickly got ready and went into the deepening gloom.  I had to ramp up the ISO to ungodly heights, and hoped for the best.  It was so dark on the return leg, that I couldn't really see where I was treading.  
This is a view of the very end of my street, as seen from the riverside path, through the hawthorn trees.
