Sheldon,These photos turned out great! Thanks for taking them, along with the Christmas lights displays shots gallery. The event was a lot bigger than I had imagined. Unfortunately, I had another commitment that evening. Hopefully I can make it next year.
It appears that the photos were taken without flash, handheld and using a high ISO speed. Did I get those right? Did you have the camera set on auto, or maybe you used shutter priority of something like 1/125 sec.? Did you do any post-exposure editing? Thanks for your night shooting insights. The new camera I'm interested in buying is just about to be released.

Yup, no flash, no pod, and 600-800 ISO speed on most of the shots. There were a few that I used a flash on. In low light settings, I usually use all manual settings. Can't recall the shutter speed, but you can't get away with anything slower than 1/10 sec when there's as much movement as there was in the Carol of Lights photos.The Carol of Lights started around 5:00pm so I got in as many shots as I could in the first hour while there was still a little light out. There was also some lighting on the scene there to help with the lighting situation so the ones that really came out were likely ones in which I had a little help.
There was some post editing on most of the photos... mostly to increase the exposure digitally and some adjustments to the temperature of the colors.
It's been a year since I've done the light display shooting so I'm brushing up on my own tips.
