What’s on YOUR tree?
December 10, 2008 3 CommentsSince I missed out on recording a podcast this week, I was also slack in getting out and about to shoot a “What’s This?” type image. The fact that Tracy wanted to get all the decorations up (I did too…actually it was probably more me than her) so we’d have some time to enjoy them also detracted from the photography mission for the week. So, as I ditched the bad chili from yesterday, I pulled out the ole 40D and snapped off a few macro type shots from our work on the house. Nothing that will make Better Homes and Gardens, but kinda neat anyway. Here’s the best of that I got so far – will likely try more as we get closer and closer. So, enjoy thiese two, but also please feel free to share your own as you ponder the question of “What’s on YOUR tree?“
Happy shooting and we’ll see you back here again tomorrow!

Here’s my Christmas macro shot: this doesn’t go on the tree, but sits on a lamp table beside it.

Jason,
Great idea about shooting close-up photos of the tree ornaments. Pics like this really add some variety to everyone’s holiday photos, especially if you like to make slides shows.
Also, don’t forget the outside lights on the house and some of the other decorations in addition to the party and opening of the gifts action photographs.
Keep up the great work on the website.
