				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1487" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-backyard-haven-with-outdoor-lighting.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-1487 " title="Spring is the perfect time to schedule your outdoor lighting maintenance." alt="Outdoor Lighting Perspectives backyard haven with outdoor lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-backyard-haven-with-outdoor-lighting.jpg?w=500&#038;h=636" width="500" height="636" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Spring is the perfect time to schedule your outdoor lighting maintenance.</p></div>
<p>Since the official arrival of warmer temperatures and longer days residents all over the Nashville area are busy sprucing up their landscapes. In anticipation of spending more of their free time outdoors, homeowners are also performing maintenance on their outdoor living areas. This maintenance can mean washing, sealing or painting your deck, refurbishing any mulched or pine needled borders or beds, and even adding splashes of color throughout your landscape by installing annuals. Spring is the perfect time to renew and refresh your outdoor spaces to maximize beauty and function. Now is also the perfect time to schedule the annual maintenance of your outdoor lighting system to ensure they are in proper working order to enjoy throughout the outdoor living season.</p>
<div id="attachment_1259" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/deck-and-patio-lighting.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-1259 " alt="Nashville Deck and patio lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/deck-and-patio-lighting.jpg?w=320&#038;h=240" width="320" height="240" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">A well-lit deck or patio will enable you to use your outdoor space long after the sun sets.</p></div>
<p>No other outdoor lighting Annual Maintenance Plan is more thorough than ours. Once a year we will replace all bulbs, repair any damaged wire, inspect the transformer and check and reset the timer. We also straighten any fixtures that may have succumb to wind, inclement weather or other exterior changes such as bumping which may have left them unleveled. Trimming and adjusting for plant overgrowth is another important facet of our maintenance, which is crucial as we move forward into the growing season.  Our outdoor lighting professional will also perform simple changes to enhance the effects of your lighting. Your lighting system  will remain headache-free and operating beautifully. Nothing is overlooked when we are performing your scheduled maintenance.</p>
<p>You can enjoy your first year of annual maintenance free with your full-service outdoor lighting system installation. After the initial year, you may sign up for continued Annual Maintenance Plan services if you desire. This is a huge benefit for those homeowners who are looking for ways to enhance their landscape this season and are considering the addition of outdoor lighting.</p>
<div id="attachment_374" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 370px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/fallen-light.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-374   " alt="fallen light" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/fallen-light.jpg?w=360&#038;h=270" width="360" height="270" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Our scheduled maintenance visit will ensure things like fallen lights are taken care of for safety&#8217;s sake. We even service systems installed by other companies.</p></div>
<p>If your outdoor lighting system was installed by another company, you can still take advantage of Outdoor Lighting Perspectives’  of Nashville maintenance and/or repair services. Many companies will not perform maintenance on outdoor lighting which was installed by one of our competitors; we are different in that we provide the same quality service even if Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville did not install the outdoor lighting. The safety, function and beauty of your lighting is our first priority.</p>
<p>Give us a call today to schedule this important maintenance. Our professionalism and attention to detail will mean outdoor lighting maintenance is one less chore you will have to worry about this season. One less chore on your spring &#8220;to do&#8221; list also means more time to enjoy the warm Nashville days and beautifully illuminated Nashville nights!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville welcomes the arrival of daylight savings time with our effortless LCA technology.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=outdoorlightingnashville.com&#038;blog=6421985&#038;post=1448&#038;subd=outdoorlightingnashville&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1359" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/nashville-led-landscape-lighting.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1359" alt="Nashville-led-landscape-lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/nashville-led-landscape-lighting.jpg?w=500"   /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Our LCA technology ensures your lights will be on when you need them, each and every time.</p></div>
<p>Tonight is the night. Daylight savings time begins at 2:00 AM Sunday, March 10th. This time change means that many homeowners will be busy setting their clocks and other timed devices an hour ahead this evening to ensure the correct time. If you are still using a manual outdoor lighting timer, you are probably busy programming your timer right now in lieu of DST. Manual outdoor lighting timers are simply time-consuming and inconvenient. As the days begin to get longer they also force you to chase dusk during the entire season. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville wants to introduce you to lighting control automation, or LCA for short. LCA is convenient, versatile and will ensure that you will never have to worry about programming your outdoor lighting to accommodate DST, or chase dusk again.<a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/daylight-savings-time.jpg"><img class="alignright  wp-image-1453" alt="Daylight savings time" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/daylight-savings-time.jpg?w=240&#038;h=192" width="240" height="192" /></a></p>
<p>Not only does our LCA technology automatically adjust to facilitate the change for daylight savings time, it provides automation that you will enjoy every day. It simplifies your outdoor lighting. Our LCA provides effortless control of your home’s indoor and outdoor lighting and other powered features. The smart timer can do more than simply turn on selected lights at dusk. It can control your indoor and outdoor electric outlets. Here are just a few of the benefits LCA will provide.</p>
<ul>
<li>LCA will ensure your outdoor lights come on automatically at dusk and off at dawn or the time of your choosing.</li>
<li>LCA will allow you to designate zones of lighting, both indoor and outdoor and program these zones to turn on and off automatically so your home always looks occupied. This is a huge convenience when you are on vacation.</li>
<li>LCA will allow you to program your lights to come at 50% power with the onset of dusk and progressively increase as the evening gets darker. This feature not only saves energy; it also creates a romantic ambiance in your landscape.</li>
<li>LCA allows you to control lights and appliances inside your home to come on automatically as well. We can even place a central keypad to control the entire system at the flick of a switch in any location you choose.</li>
<li>LCA can be programmed to gain control from your laptop or even your smart phone. This feature allows you to control your lighting from remote locations for the utmost convenience and versatility.</li>
<li>LCA will allow you to illuminate your home and landscape in any configuration and to come on at varying times. The choices are only limited to your imagination.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are overflowing with excitement in our most recent special event lighting project. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville lit an event at the historic <a title="Houston Station" href="http://www.houstonstationnashville.com/" target="_blank"> Houston Station </a>in downtown Nashville. The event was the annual dinner and silent auction to benefit<a title="The Overbrook School" href="http://www.overbrook.edu/" target="_blank"> The Overbrook School</a>. The theme of this special event was titled “A night in the French Quarter&#8221;. The interior of Houston Station was brought to life with the feel and romance of New Orleans.</p>
<div id="attachment_1440" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-lights-houston-station.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1440" alt="Outdoor Lighting Perspectives lights Houston Station" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-lights-houston-station.jpg?w=500&#038;h=373" width="500" height="373" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville lights Houston Station for &#8220;A night in the French Quarter&#8221;.</p></div>
<p>Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville assisted in providing draped mini lighting throughout the 19th century building&#8217;s main hall. We also highlighted the items for the silent auction down the hallways with simple down lighting from the rafters. We used LED copper event lighting to create a warm feeling as guests walked through to dinner. Inside the main event area, we instilled the use of temporary battery-powered LED up lights around the entire perimeter of the room. This enchanting technique helped to bring out the richness of the vintage bricks and beams within the room’s architecture. We topped off the theme by using copper LED post lanterns at the entrance into the event and at the sign-tables. The carefully selected venue for this New Orleans themed event combined with the well-appointed decor, and our romantic special event lighting made you feel as if you had stepped right into the French Quarter.</p>
<p>The evening was a resounding success for The Overbrook School. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville is proud to have been part of creating the beautiful setting. We want to thank the school and the parents. Great job parents on an evening of splendor and fun!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville outlines some of the most popular outdoor lighting techniques. These techniques can add safety and beauty to the time you spend outdoors in the evening. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=outdoorlightingnashville.com&#038;blog=6421985&#038;post=1416&#038;subd=outdoorlightingnashville&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_589" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/tree_lighting_2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-589" alt="Tree lighting by Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/tree_lighting_2.jpg?w=500&#038;h=332" width="500" height="332" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">The ethereal illumination of proper moon lighting is achieved by using multi-layering throughout the trees canopy</p></div>
<p>One of the hottest trends in outdoor living design is outdoor lighting. Outdoor lighting procures a safe and secure environment around your home but in addition also provides loads of aesthetic value. A recent<a title="HGTV Remodels story Outdoor Lighting Brightens Up" href="http://www.hgtvremodels.com/outdoors/outdoor-lighting-brightens-up/index.html" target="_blank"> post by HGTV Remodels </a>indicates the market demand for outdoor lighting is on the rise. They also point out four outdoor lighting techniques that can deliver the effect most homeowners are looking for. These are up lighting, down lighting, zonal lighting and moonlighting. Now, to someone who is not familiar with outdoor lighting terminology, these types of outdoor lighting can sound like a foreign language. In order to get the most out of your outdoor lighting it is important to become familiar with these lighting techniques so you and your professional lighting specialist will be on the same page.</p>
<div id="attachment_1262" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/house-uplighting-picture.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-1262  " alt="Nashville uplighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/house-uplighting-picture.jpg?w=320&#038;h=309" width="320" height="309" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">We used up lighting on this home to accentuate the width and depth of the home and bring out special features such as the columns.</p></div>
<p><strong>Up lighting</strong> &#8211; this lighting technique is used in both architectural and landscape lighting applications. We use up lighting to accentuate the height, width and depth of your home. This lighting technique is also used within the landscape to add drama and focus to trees, and other areas of interest in the landscape.</p>
<p><strong>Down lighting</strong> &#8211; down lighting plays upon the same principles as up lighting. Down lighting can be used as an innovative way to enhance your home&#8217;s architectural features. Down lighting is also the most widely used technique to illuminate walkways and pathways. Down lighting can promote safety along the most frequented areas around your home and within your yard.</p>
<p><strong>Focal point lighting</strong> &#8211; focal lighting such as focal tree lighting, waterfall lighting and statuary lighting is the best way to highlight an area or object of beauty in your landscape. Our exclusive focal point lighting uses soft washes of light to enhance your object or space. This technique ensures your eye is drawn to the object we are illuminating rather than the light source itself.</p>
<p><strong>Moonlighting</strong> &#8211; this appropriately named lighting technique mimics the effects of the light present during a full moon. A combination of up lighting and down lighting is used to create this hauntingly beautiful technique. We often design moonlighting within trees in the landscape to not only illuminate the tree in a unique way, but also the area that surrounds the tree.  Dramatic shadowing and ambient light combine to create moonlighting that is a work of art.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1269" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-garden-lighting-in-the-rose-garden.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1269" alt="Nashville garden lighting in the rose garden" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-garden-lighting-in-the-rose-garden.jpg?w=500&#038;h=363" width="500" height="363" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">What could be more romantic than illuminating your garden to enjoy evening after evening?</p></div>
<p>Another Valentine’s Day has come and went.  In hindsight, was the gift that you chose for your beloved one that truly signifies the feelings you have for them? Let&#8217;s face it, flowers, as lovely as they are will quickly wilt and lose their vigor. Much is the same with chocolates because if  not enjoyed in a timely manner, will lose their indulgence and flavor over time. Looking ahead to the future and choosing a gift that would make a bold statement about the depth of your emotions for the next Valentine’s day, anniversary or birthday gift, will speak volumes about your feelings and commitment. Outdoor lighting makes the perfect gift for that special someone in your life no matter what the occasion.</p>
<div id="attachment_1392" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/spent-flowers-and-candy.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1392 " alt="spent flowers and candy" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/spent-flowers-and-candy.jpg?w=300&#038;h=297" width="300" height="297" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Does this resemble the remainder of your Valentine&#8217;s Day efforts?</p></div>
<p>The very nature of outdoor lighting lends itself to romance. The way soft washes of light enhance your home, your landscape,your outdoor spaces and your trees and flowers. Our professional outdoor lighting doesn&#8217;t overpower the focal point of illumination, it creates ambiance within that focus. The effect is a home that is lit with ambiance and romance in mind. I like to think of professional outdoor lighting as mood lighting for your home. Imagine enjoying evening walks through your cherished rose garden while in full bloom. Imagine having an intimate dinner outside on your deck or patio any evening you wish. Imagine enjoying a midnight swim in your pool on a warm summer night. Imagine the possibilities outdoor lighting would add to your lifestyle.</p>
<div id="attachment_1271" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-professional-landscape-and-garden-lighting.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-1271" alt="Nashville professional landscape and garden lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-professional-landscape-and-garden-lighting.jpg?w=500&#038;h=243" width="500" height="243" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Professional landscape lighting can create evening vignettes of beauty in your landscape.</p></div>
<p>Your home is a testament of the life you have built with your significant other. A sense of pride in the life you have created together is evident through the care you have taken in making your home and landscape something you can be proud of. What better way to pay homage to that commitment than to add outdoor lighting to the scenario? While candies and roses will be enjoyed for a week, or maybe 10 days, outdoor lighting can be enjoyed 365 days a year. Outdoor lighting is the gift that will keep on giving for many years to come.</p>

Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville reminds you the importance of exercising common sense in lighting safety in regards to much and landscape debris.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=outdoorlightingnashville.com&#038;blog=6421985&#038;post=1346&#038;subd=outdoorlightingnashville&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1354" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-of-nashville-beautiful-outdoor-lighting.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-1354" alt="Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville beautiful outdoor lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-of-nashville-beautiful-outdoor-lighting.jpg?w=500&#038;h=399" width="500" height="399" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Our outdoor lighting installations utilize safety as well as beauty in your landscape.</p></div>
<p>When most people think of outdoor lighting they envision a beautiful home and landscape enhanced by the soft, romantic illumination of professional outdoor lighting. It is true that the aesthetic appeal of outdoor lighting is important, as is their ability to enhance function of your landscape in the evening. One often overlooked aspect of outdoor lighting that is just as important is the safety of the outdoor lights themselves.Safe outdoor lighting is a top priority at Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville. Letting a novice install your outdoor lighting can often lead to safety hazards such as overloaded circuitry and incorrect installation. This is why it is important to have an outdoor lighting professional install your outdoor lights. Aside from choosing a reputable, experienced outdoor lighting professional there are other safeguards that need to be addressed from the position of the homeowner which can affect the safety of your outdoor lighting.</p>
<div id="attachment_1360" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/lens-cover-damaged-by-mulch-pile.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1360" alt="lens-cover-damaged-by-mulch-pile" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/lens-cover-damaged-by-mulch-pile.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This lens cover has been damaged by allowing debris to pile atop the light.</p></div>
<p>One of the number one fire hazards that pose a threat in outdoor lighting is the absence of lens covers, especially on well lights. As we look ahead to the coming spring, homeowners will be busy sprucing up their yards by trimming bushes, flowers and trees as well as refurbishing their mulch and pine straw in their landscape. Spent clippings from plant material are often dried out, and once it has been trimmed will dry out quickly. It is important to discard these clippings and keep them away from all outdoor lighting to avoid the risk of fire. When applying new mulch or pine straw it is also crucial to avoid covering your outdoor lighting. Covering your outdoor lighting will not only make your lighting look bad, it can also present a risk of fire from contact with the dry mulch. This is the reason  having lens covers on your well lights is so beneficial. The purpose of lens covers is to keep any foreign material out of your well lights that could potentially pose a fire hazard, including plant clippings and mulch.</p>
<div id="attachment_1361" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 367px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/lens-covers-large.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-1361 " alt="lens-covers" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/lens-covers-large.jpg?w=357&#038;h=242" width="357" height="242" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This image clearly illustrates the importance of lens covers.</p></div>
<p>Even with lens covers it is still possible for outdoor lighting to become a fire hazard if covered completely by landscape materials. The material can cause the light itself to heat up and melt. It is a good idea to perform a once over in your landscape beds once your new mulch has been delivered, and again when applied to make sure no lighting has been buried underneath. It is also important to convey to your landscape manager who is overseeing your mulching or trimming  the presence and location of your lighting to ensure no lights get buried.</p>
<div id="attachment_649" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 271px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/leg-lights.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-649 " alt="LED lights are long lasting, energy efficient and among the safest lights on the market today for outdoor lighting." src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/leg-lights.jpg?w=261&#038;h=224" width="261" height="224" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">LED lights are long lasting, energy efficient and among the safest lights on the market today for outdoor lighting.</p></div>
<p>As lighting systems transition from quartz halogen to LED, mulch-related heat buildup problems and issues will decrease. If you are new to outdoor lighting and are considering adding them to your home and landscape in the near future, choosing an LED system will decrease the risk of heat buildup and fire because  LED lighting produces very little heat when in use because it contains no filament. The light LED produces come from a process called electroluminescence, where a substance is acted upon by an electric field that produces a <strong>cold</strong> light. Not only does LED pose less of risk of causing fires, it is also dramatically more energy-efficient, more durable, and leaves less of a carbon footprint on the environment. It doesn&#8217;t get much &#8220;cooler&#8221; than that!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1264" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 510px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/ind-021.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-1264" alt="Nashville outdoor lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/ind-021.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" width="500" height="375" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Outdoor lighting enhances your home and landscape every evening through every season.</p></div>
<p>For many folks the latter part of winter can present itself in dismal ways. The excitement of the holidays is behind us for another year and our Nashville homes and landscapes are vacant of the holiday lighting that was present just a short time back. Do you remember the way you felt each time you pulled into your driveway and gazed upon your home and landscape under the warming glow of  holiday lighting? Do you miss the way the lights subtly accentuated your home and property? If so, you are not alone in missing the enchantment that outdoor holiday lighting brings. Instead of spending another dark evening wishing you could get that feeling back, why not install outdoor lighting  that will keep that magic alive all through the year?</p>
<p>Outdoor lighting can extend your hours of enjoyment into the evening all around your home and within your landscape. Having outdoor lighting will also improve the safety and security of your home, and improve your home&#8217;s curb appeal. Not only will you get peace of mind in knowing the lights are on when you need them most, you will also get to experience the  nuances of nature that are missed by keeping your landscape in the dark.    With outdoor lighting each season presents its own distinct beauty and you get to witness each of these changes under the soft wash of light that outdoor lighting will provide.</p>
<div id="attachment_1266" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-tree-lighting.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-1266  " alt="Nashville tree lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-tree-lighting.jpg?w=320&#038;h=158" width="320" height="158" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Outdoor lighting brings forgotten areas of your landscape to life.</p></div>
<p><strong>The Winter Landscape</strong></p>
<p>Nashville&#8217;s frigid winter temperatures may chill the bones, but snow, ice and the unique qualities of the winter landscape lend a magical beauty, especially under the illumination of outdoor lighting.  Outdoor lighting will enhance the haunting silhouettes of leafless tress within your yard. Even though the trees are lacking in their leafy abundance their beauty is still present.  Well lit paths and entries will also guard against accidents that could result from treading on dark, slippery surfaces in the cold of the winter evenings.</p>
<div id="attachment_1269" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 360px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-garden-lighting-in-the-rose-garden.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-1269 " alt="Nashville garden lighting in the rose garden" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-garden-lighting-in-the-rose-garden.jpg?w=350&#038;h=254" width="350" height="254" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Garden lighting accentuates the beauty of blooming perennials and other foliage in the landscape.</p></div>
<p><strong>The Spring Landscape</strong></p>
<p>Bulbs and flowers begin to wake up from their long winter nap and the landscape comes alive with color. Perennial grasses come out of dormancy and the trees within our landscapes bud and spring new growth. With the addition of outdoor lighting such as garden and landscape lighting you will get a ring-side seat to witness the attraction of the world around you springing to life. As the days and nights begin to get warmer your desire to stay outdoors also heats up, outdoor lighting will allow you to enjoy the inspirational beauty of spring with a well-lit home and landscape.</p>

<p><strong>The Summer Landscape</strong></p>
<p>Not only does summer present more opportunities to enjoy outdoor activities after the sun goes down, the landscape itself lends itself to lingering longer in the evening hours. Outdoor lighting will enable extended hours of enjoyment in all facets of your landscape. Adding pool and underwater lighting to your pool area will enable you to enjoy a dip in the pool on those balmy summer nights, and deck and patio lighting will ensure your outdoor celebrations aren&#8217;t forced indoors due to the lack of light. Outdoor lighting will let you love and live in your landscape all summer long. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville also offers party and special events lighting that is perfect for outdoor events you have planned, such as parties and weddings just to name a few.</p>

<p><strong>The Autumn Landscape</strong></p>
<p>Autumn is the most beautiful time of the year in Tennessee. Our area is among only a handful of areas throughout the country that draws in tourists just to view our lovely fall foliage each autumn. Our landscapes are ablaze with color from amber to gold and every hue in-between. Tree lighting is one genre of outdoor lighting that will allow you to enjoy all the changing beauty of the trees within your yard. We use a combination of up and down lighting, as well as moon lighting, to play up the beauty and unique form of each tree. With outdoor lighting you will never miss a moment of the changes nature provides.</p>
<p>If you are ready to witness all of Mother Nature’s majesty in your landscape every evening, for 365 days a year outdoor lighting is just the ticket.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_1256" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 370px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.com/2012/12/30/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-of-nashville-gives-you-the-top-5-favorite-reasons-to-make-outdoor-lighting-at-your-home-this-years-resolution/after-outdoor-lighting/" rel="attachment wp-att-1256"><img class=" wp-image-1256 " alt="Nashville TN home after outdoor lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/after-outdoor-lighting.jpg?w=360&#038;h=288" width="360" height="288" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This home in Nashville stands as a beacon of beauty and peace of mind with professional outdoor lighting.</p></div>
<p>The New Year is just days away, and with i&#8217;s arrival comes the time to make your annual New Year&#8217;s resolution. Choosing a resolution, or goal to achieve within the coming year is the easy part, all good intentions aside keeping and fulfilling it can be much more difficult. According to research conducted by <a title="Proactive change " href="http://proactivechange.com/resolutions/statistics.htm" target="_blank">Proactive Change</a> 40%- 45% of Americans will make one or more resolutions this year. This same data also indicates that only 75% of those Americans will still be sticking to succeeding in their goal past the first week, and after 6 months only 46% will still be on track. Making a New Year&#8217;s resolution is one thing, but sticking to it to reach your inspired goal is quite another. I believe that this is due in part to the fact that most resolutions we set are too difficult, this year why not make a resolution that is easily accessible? Resolving to make your home and landscape a safer, more secure and beautiful place to live is a great resolution and  is easy with the addition of outdoor lighting.</p>
<p>Outdoor lighting adds many benefits to your home. From strengthening your homes curb appeal to thwarting off would-be burglars. A home and landscape that is charming by day will become dazzling in the evening by adding outdoor lighting. Here is just a few of the reasons to make outdoor lighting the one New Year&#8217;s resolution that is easy to keep.</p>
<div id="attachment_1257" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 370px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.com/2012/12/30/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-of-nashville-gives-you-the-top-5-favorite-reasons-to-make-outdoor-lighting-at-your-home-this-years-resolution/bright-and-beautiful-with-outdoor-lighting/" rel="attachment wp-att-1257"><img class=" wp-image-1257 " alt="bright and beautiful with outdoor lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/bright-and-beautiful-with-outdoor-lighting.jpg?w=360&#038;h=270" width="360" height="270" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This home is bright and beautiful thanks to outdoor lighting.</p></div>
<p><strong>1) An end to coming home each night to a dark house</strong> &#8211; this alone is reason enough to install professional outdoor lighting at your home. Dark and dimly lit areas around your home and within your landscape leave you open to unsavory activity.  In the evening, darkness and fear of the unknown go hand-in-hand. If security is a concern outdoor lighting is critical. Having ample lighting around doorways, rear entrances of the home, garages and carports can help create a secure environment when entering your home and leaving. This security can be taken even a step further by adding LCA, (Lighting Control Animation), which can ensure your lights will be on whenever you need them. This convenient automation even allows you to control your outdoor lighting from remote locations.</p>
<div id="attachment_1259" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 370px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.com/2012/12/30/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-of-nashville-gives-you-the-top-5-favorite-reasons-to-make-outdoor-lighting-at-your-home-this-years-resolution/deck-and-patio-lighting/" rel="attachment wp-att-1259"><img class=" wp-image-1259 " alt=" Nashville Deck and patio lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/deck-and-patio-lighting.jpg?w=360&#038;h=270" width="360" height="270" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">A well-lit deck or patio will enable you to use your outdoor space long after the sun sets.</p></div>
<p><strong>2) Being able to entertain outdoors past sundown</strong> &#8211; have you ever had a summer barbecue on your deck or patio and just when the party gets rolling you have to cut it short because of the lack of light? By adding outdoor lighting in and around your outdoor spaces, this will never have to happen again. You can entertain into the wee hours if you wish with no worry of interrupting the treasured memories you will be creating with family and friends.</p>
<div id="attachment_1270" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 217px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.com/2012/12/30/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-of-nashville-gives-you-the-top-5-favorite-reasons-to-make-outdoor-lighting-at-your-home-this-years-resolution/nashville-landscape-lighting-and-path-lighting/" rel="attachment wp-att-1270"><img class=" wp-image-1270     " alt="Nashville landscape lighting and path lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/nashville-landscape-lighting-and-path-lighting.jpg?w=207&#038;h=232" width="207" height="232" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Path and landscape lighting aids in more secure travel when venturing outdoors in the evening.</p></div>
<p><strong>3) Your kids won&#8217;t have to run from imaginary monsters anymore</strong> &#8211; Admit it, even as an adult your imagination wanders when you are forced to venture outdoors in the dark. Professionally installed landscape and path lighting will put an end to the creepy feeling that can overcome you when you venture to areas within your landscape at night.

<p><strong>4) A great way to make a lasting first impression</strong> &#8211; the first place to begin creating a warm and welcoming entrance to your home is with outdoor lighting. Path lighting in particular gently illuminates the path to your front door in an effective way to create ambiance and set the mood for things to come. Architectural and facade lighting that makes your homes most beautiful features come to life will lead the eye to drink in the unique characteristics of your home too. When guests remember visiting your home for the first time, a lasting impression of beauty and a welcoming atmosphere will enter their minds when you have professional outdoor lighting.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Our improved BB02 LED fixture is small enough to fit where other fixtures only dream of going, and packs a powerful 30 foot light spread along with it.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=outdoorlightingnashville.com&#038;blog=6421985&#038;post=1201&#038;subd=outdoorlightingnashville&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_390" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.com/2011/02/24/when-to-install-outdoor-lighting/house-uplighting-picture/" rel="attachment wp-att-390"><img class=" wp-image-390   " alt="Nashville Outdoor Lighting - Architectural Outdoor Lighting" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/house-uplighting-picture.jpg?w=320&#038;h=309" width="320" height="309" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Home sweet home is ready for your arrival with our expanded outdoor lighting fixtures and technologies.</p></div>
<p>Professional outdoor lighting is an art. Part of perfecting that art is choosing the appropriate fixture to gain the greatest benefit within the area you are illuminating. We have found that the curves and unique angles of many of today’s modern homes and landscapes can present challenges when it comes to the unity of outdoor lighting designs. For this very reason, our exclusive manufacturer has come up with the solution to this problem. Our improved  BB-02 copper direct flood/spotlight can fit into those spaces that other lights cannot.</p>
<p>This miraculous little light is commonly known as “the big stick” because of its resemblance to a stick. With its streamlined design, this light fits the needs for areas that really need a smaller bullet light. The fixture is designed in LED it carries all the thermal attributes of our larger LED fixtures which ensure a long life. Since the fixture is designed in LED it only uses a 10 watt PAR LED bulb which is the equivalent to a 50 watt with standard bulbs. Less wattage means more energy savings and that is always a good thing. These new LED PAR bulbs now come with a new grey anodized finish. By anodizing all the aluminum parts they can protect the bulbs even better than with powder coating. The result also delivers a more sleek and durable look.</p>
<div id="attachment_1210" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 330px"><a href="http://outdoorlightingnashville.com/2012/12/16/outdoor-lighting-perspectives-of-nashvilles-bb-02-fixture-goes-where-no-fixture-has-gone-before/bb02/" rel="attachment wp-att-1210"><img class=" wp-image-1210 " alt="BB02" src="http://outdoorlightingnashville.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/bb02.png?w=320&#038;h=466" width="320" height="466" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Known as &#8220;the big stick&#8221;, the BB02 is slender and streamlined and offers a 30 degree beam spread.</p></div>
<p>The BB-02‘s slim design allows landscape friendly installations in multiple landscape designs.  The BB-02 is Available in different heights to work perfectly when placed in grasses. Some of the areas that the “big stick” would be perfect for include decorative ornamental grasses within the landscape, as well as other shrubs and plants that have cumbersome dimensions to work with. Paths lined with borders of variable height foliage and perennials will also benefit from the use of the  BB-02. The list of areas this fixture is perfect for go on and on.</p>
<p>Not only does the fixture look the part, it delivers a 30 degree beam spread which means this little light can go places  no light has gone before and illuminate those areas  beautifully to boot.  As with every quality fixture within the family of those used here at Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville, this light will make adding more beauty and definition to your professional outdoor lighting design a breeze.</p>

<p>Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville was proud to be a part of the kickoff to the TN holiday season. Amid a flurry of guests brimming over with holiday spirit,<a title="Governor Bill Haslam" href="http://www.tn.gov/governor/" target="_blank"> Governor Bill Haslam</a> and first lady Crissy Haslam lit the Christmas tree at the Tennessee Capitol Monday evening. The Tree, which is a majestic 30-foot Norway spruce, features over 6,000 LED lights and festive ornaments courtesy of Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville. The tree stands three feet taller than last year&#8217;s tree and holds twice as many lights.</p>
<p>The tree was moved to Nashville from state-owned land located in Arrington in honor of the annual Capitol tree lighting which took place Monday, November 26th.</p>
<p>As the Governor and his wife lit the tree, the transition from dark to watching the tree come alive with the Capitol building as the backdrop was truly magical. Even as rain sprinkled from the sky, you could hear the reaction of the crowd as a unified sound of enchantment. <a title="WKRN" href="http://www.wkrn.com/" target="_blank">Nashville&#8217;s WKRN TV News 2</a> was there to film the event and you can watch a video of  the tree being lit here;  <a title="WKRN TV Nashville 2 capital tree lighting ceremony" href="http://www.wkrn.com/story/20187317/nashville-christmas-tree-lighting-ceremony" target="_blank">http://www.wkrn.com/story/20187317/nashville-christmas-tree-lighting-ceremony</a></p>

<p>The event for state employees, their families and the public was held on the plaza across from the Capitol building. The evening celebrations also included horse and carriage rides, a visit from Santa and recording artist <a title="Chris Young" href="http://www.chrisyoungcountry.com/" target="_blank">Chris Young</a> and even a reindeer named Comet. This event will definitely be held close to the hearts of our Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Nashville&#8217;s crew. All the planning, design and teamwork that went into lighting this tree paid off when the tree was lit for the first time. We will always remember the moment, and are proud to have played such a crucial role in making the evening a success!</p>
