The fountain at Branson Landing, presents a light, fire, water and music show, every hour on the hour, throughout the day, until about 10 PM. Our balcony, at the Hilton Promenade overlooks the fountain.
Move your camera, as you snap the photo, to get this fun effect. These photos are of the lights around the fountain.

I took this photo from the Hwy 47 bridge, at Washington, Missouri. The bridge is under repairs. I took several photos of the river, while we waited to complete our crossing, the morning we drove to Branson.
This is my contribution for Outdoor Wednesday, at Susan’s A Southern Daydreamer.

This must be such a wonderful place to visit during the holiday season. Everything is so pretty and festive.
I love your fun light pictures.

We are going to Branson this weekend! Last March we went and then when we got home found out about Branson Landing. We never even saw it when we were there so we are excited to see it this time.
Your "dancing" lights are beautiful and intriguing.
Love the decor at the fountain and that blue is so pretty. Thanks for sharing it.
Ooh I love Branson at Christmas time. Are you going to Silver Dollar City? They always have a great light display all over the park.
Beautiful! Branson is always so wonderful at Christmas.
Very pretty! Thanks for sharing.
Verrrrry tricky photography!
Branson always has fabulous lights at Christmas! Great pictures, Pat!
Branson looks like a beautiful place, especially at Christmas! Is this the Branson, Missouri of country music fame? It is on our list of vacation destinations.
What a fun place! Great Christmas photos!!
Thanks for sharing them with us.
Gets you in the Christmas spirit.

Beautiful Pat! We wondered what he condos on the square are like, but in hind sight, we prefer a little more seclusion than the landing for our get away. It;s nice to go visit occasionally though. Did you eat at that yummy chic mexican place? The name escapes me? We sat by the window and when the torches outdoors on the river lit up, we could feel the heat indoors! My goodness!
OMG! stunning pics, I'd lurve to visit
the fountain...mmm mmm
great post Pat, as ever!

Love those fountain/light pictures--really neat!
Love those fountain/light pictures--really neat!
Hi Pat, hope this finds you feeling much better. You know in all the years we lived in the Ozarks I've never been to Branson over the holidays. Thank you for sharing such beautiful pictures.. hugs ~lynne~
As many times as we've been to BRanson -- we've never been at Christmas. And we've stayed at Branson landing -- except at that time it was small cabins! Quite a change!
I may look at our calendar and see if we can make that trip this Christmas
What a beautiful place to visit this time of the year, and a light show every hour on the hour, how fun!
I have never been there so I really enjoyed your holiday photos. Thanks for sharing them with me.

Pat, I've never been to Branson, and after seeing this, I would love to visit. Thanks for sharing. There are some wonderful photos here!
Happy OW to you, too!
XO,
Sheila :-)
How lovely and what a fun place, Pat. I love those silver reindeers....Christine
Very cool statues!
This was such a fun trip to take with you.
If you get a moment come take a shot of my "not so great" night photography-- but they are fun.

Pat - Love your pictures always! I especially like the photo of Washington = our town for the last 30+ years. We're transplants from Troy, and your Main Street photo of Troy is another of my favorites. Can't wait to see the rest of your Christmas posts! Happy Holidays! Evelyn
Why, I am just stunned that Branson is this beautiful. What was I thinking? I don't know...I had NO idea it was such a magical place. Everything is just so pretty.
Now, I REALLY want to go.
Your photographs are just stunning.
Beautiful! I love the silver & blue. I've been to Branson Landing once before all of the stores were open. We used to camp on the banks of the river in the City Park, right where the Mall is now! Merry Christmas!
Branson sure does know how to decorate for the holidays. My favorite image is of the snowman in the bay window. Thanks for the tip of moving the camera when shooting Christmas Lights. Great idea! I like how the image turned out. It looks like an abstract painting. Nice job!

Wow! You have some beautiful photos! What a lovely place to visit during the holidays! I think you just sparked a higher level of enthusiasm in me now...I'm ready to get out there and get some holiday shots! Yea!
Wonderful photos of Branson, I love all the Christmas decorations. Looks like a nice place to visit during the holidays.
Absolutely breathtaking!!!
My O W is now posted. Today a slide show of us attending the famous Texas King Ranchhand Breakfast. Come see a bit of 'history' if you can.
It's Here
I loved seeing Branson through your camera lens, Pat. You captured its magic beautifully.
Hello Pat, your vacation photos are so wonderful. What a delightful way to rest up for the big holiday ahead. I want to go to Branson. We have never been there. How beautiful the decorations are. I'm glad you had such a wonderful time on your getaway.
I was gone for several days for Thanksgiving. My visits have suffered. I just looked at your Christmas tree post and I was mesmerized by the beauty of it all. Beautiful! hardly does justice for the transformation in your lovely dining room. As a decorator, you rock Pat. Come to my house please.
Happy decorating.
Hugs xoxo, Jeanne
Beautiful photos. It makes me want to visit there some day!
LOVE those reindeer with the beautiful, simple wreaths!
What can I say? Wow! What a great view you had and that fountain and the reindeer are stunning.
I love that trick with moving the camera when shooting lights. They gave us that as an assignment in my photography class several years ago. It was such fun to watch them develop in the dark room and see what would appear.
Beautiful post!
What a FESTIVE Outdoor Wednesday post! I've been avoiding shopping areas, but perhaps I'm ready to venture forth with camera in hand leaving my wallet at home? We'll see ;-)
Hugs and blessings,
My Outdoor Wednesday
Awesome...nuff said!

Hi Pat :)
It looks like you had a great time! I want to visit Branson every time I see pictures of it. I love those deer! How funny that J bought that BB Gun.... I need to get one for Rich. It's his favorite Christmas movie ;)
You Thanksgiving table was gorgeous and so is your Christmas dining room! You are an amazing decorator :)

I haven't been there in ages!!!!!!! Things have sure changed! Your photos are divine! And the photos of your dining room decorated are wonderful!!!! I am working on mine & you are sooooooooo right... it goes a little slower each year. Also, loved the photo of you & Mrs claus over on your About Me.
Great photos Pat! Love the wreath on the bus/trolley.
Hugs!

Hi Pat,
What a neat area, it’s quaint and charming. The trolley looks like a nice way to get around to the local shops and restaurants! I feel like I’ve taken a mini trip. It was a welcome reprieve on this soggy, grey morning.
Ho, Ho, Ho!
