Landscape lighting or flight path?

Lighting can certainly add drama to architecture and plants alike, but remember, a little goes a long way. Much like "supersize value meals", the lighting kits available through Home Depot and other home improvement stores are designed to make you feel as though you're getting more for your money, but you really shouldn't be eating all of those fries if you know what I mean. We've all seen the result--a lit border, usually formed in a very straight line, of too many plastic path lights--attracting planes, but not much else.
