M-250R Installed - Front Shot
The Light is level; the post is crooked. I actually wanted the light to tile to the left and was going by the post as a reference, not realizing hoe far off that post really it! The mast arm actually is tilted slightly so I'll probably use the mast arm as a reference when I re-tilt the light. I want it to tilt to the left a little because there's more yard to light on that side. It lights the yard good with its glass lens and looks great. I might try a plastic lens just to see how it looks. And maybe a yellowed plastic lens with a clear lamp for the super-greened-out look.

Looks good! BTW is it just me or does your roof have a sag? (Since I'm very alert to construction). Hope not in a 12 year old house!

No my roof is fine. You might be seeing the end of the ridge vent on the right. After the end of this winter, who knows lol.

Hmm must be the camera's lens then.

Yeah must be. We'd be in some serious trouble if it was. We have vaulted ceilings in the part of the house visible in the pic (kitchen where the window is, dining room where the slider is, and the living room in the front side of the house; all one big room). Looks sorta like this.

Interesting. What do visitors think of the "Streetlight in a regular backyard"?

Most think it's cool but it doesn't really get a ton of attention. No one has ever said anything negative of my street light though.
