Title: Lit up the BBQ Area UPDATED with new lights
Post by: HighOnSmoke on November 10, 2017, 07:02:39 PM

I finally found some LED lights (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B073C3BDYS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) for my canopy. Not as bright as I would like, but they work.

No flash used. Shot at F3.5 and 3200 ISO. Orangish light is from the porch area. I may get another string and run
them around the inside roof braces. Battery powered which is great!

Springsteen wrote it and it's his only #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 ("Dancing in the Dark" peaked at #2) - seems strange that somebody else had to cover it to get him there.

Also interesting that HOS has progressed from #2 to #1 in "Boss" terms.

Deuce was like a Little Deuce Coupe, as in a 2-seater Hot Rod.  Douche is a feminine hygienic procedure.  But what can I say, the public spoke.

I bought 4 camping LED lights from Amazon. They definitely light up the area now.
