As I just came back from holidays and didn't have the opportunity to go personally to the Grand'Place, (besides it rained and it was cold), I had the good idea to watch the Grand'Place through the different video cameras which are there probably to observe the tourists or upcoming troubles. I wish somebody would dismantle this horror during night, but the big brother is watching you ! Myself included !
First I saw the box tree how it looks natural

It looks as if somebody has hang up old big boxes in carton color

Suddenly the thing became green, and probably made the visitors green looking too. Faces ready for Halloween.

After a while everybody looked blue

then yellow

the orange color gave a more advantageous complexion

and then your face looked purple, before it turned to colorless again and the whole light show started again.
Here is an a article and a video from Euronews
I agree: it looks horrendous! I hope they will be back to their original trees next year.
ReplyDeleteIt sure is a bit over the top. I think a traditional one would be better.
ReplyDeleteYep, it gets my vote!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree. This is a horrible tree.
ReplyDeleteI'd ask to have a normal big one planted so this doesnt happen again lol
It really is hideous and changing the colours doesn't help at all! I bet it cost an arm and a leg, too . . . ghastly.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the right tree of christmas!!! I imagine your deception! but You'll see soon ours here, in Ollioules and around! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteIt sure different...anyhow does it have a tree scent to it.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on.
Oh dear. That was a BAD idea!
ReplyDeleteAll that good money badly spent...
ReplyDeleteIt is horrible and I am tired of people taking something which has worked for hundreds of years and turning it into a modern monstrosity.
