Some favorites
I was looking through the archives and found some of my favorite photos. I'd like to share them with you over the next few weeks. I won't go into details of the shots since most of them were a matter of being in the right place at the right time, pure luck and nothing more. Sign in to see full entry.

Christmas lights can be tricky
I wanted to take a photo of our tree for Facebook. The first thing I found out was I needed a tripod, the exposure was just too slow to hand hold and you can see some camera shake The snow in the background was also throwing the exposure off so I tried a flash but that washed out the lights.

DIY cards
Photos are great for cards, I use them on every card, so much more personal. Of course, my leading candidate for this year's Christmas card is this photo of my Grandson (what else?) being about as cute as he can be. I think the verse will be, Yo – Yo – Yo I be rappin’ When Santa comes I won’t be... Sign in to see full entry.
