Comparison Photos of Falmouth Christmas Tree 2011 and 2012 In our previous article we posted some photos of the man-made Falmouth Christmas Tree for Christmas 2012 in the early stages of decoration. Today I caught some shots of the finished product. It actually looks much better than those Christmas trees of previous years. As a matter of fact, it puts last years Christmas Tree to shame. Last year’s tree was a leaning, poorly decorated mess as shown above.
