It's almost Christmas, so it's Christmas time! :)

Good luck with all the preperations for Christmas dinner and party ;)!

Have a good tuesday :))

I have a white beard and white hair and this time of year children think I am Santa Claus. A recent trip to a civic conservatory taking pictures of plants in a hot humid atmosphere, I happened to look up and out in the cold saw this young boy watching me and smiling.It made us both happy. It was a very nice Christmas moment.

Yes I am busy... today I cleaned up the yard while my wife was decorating inside. I have no right to take a freaking picture or even write this... Next weekend we have all the employees for a party here and I have to work on Cali's book for Christmas.... but I was not able to walk by the four new Santa's my sister in law gave us for last Christmas and not take a picture. When I saw them on top of my piano... and the tree behind it... I knew what I was going to do...

I have a new tripod I wanted to show off but I had no time to set it up...

Reading an article about ISO and pushing it to the max to get more speed....... I said no to the tripod....

Ok my friends.. here it is.... handheld.. because I was lazy and had no time.....
