Most of the homes in Verdun are simple brick rowhouses that all look much the same. With limited opportunity for originality in the architecture of the home, the people of Verdun go wild decorating their homes at Xmas and Halloween.

Original image shot December 13, 2008 with a tripod-mounted Heidoscop on Provia 400X exposed for 2.5 seconds at f22 with some fill flash. (There is no flash sync on the Heidoscop so I just set off the flash during the long exposure.)
