Ray Smith 1949 - 2018

Summary

A quaint view of Christmas streetlights in an English town, focusing on a single pole on a grassy verge, mounted with a string of lights in the shape of a Christmas tree. The verge is lined with small flowering plants, an old-fashioned telephone box and a carpark entrance in the background to the left. Strings of streetlights lining the road, which presumably runs along a sea front, are visible beyond, against a darkening sky.
