I went to a look Xmas tree lighting with the express purpose of getting the crowd to look blurred yet keep the tree in focus. I was there 2 hours before the tree was suppose to be turn on and there was a light sprinkle nothing bad. I took test shots to get everthing set and waited. About 30 mins before the tree was suppose to be lit there was a down pour so I was unable to get any pics with the actual tree with all its lights.
