Caught this little moment while I was cleaning up after the Christmas shoot.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.

-By Francis P. Church, first published in The New York Sun in 1897

My try at the Christmas Tree.....

After everyone went to bed I stayed up to take a picture of the tree at 2:30 in the morning!    I tried to get that star effect.  Didn't come out as well as I had hoped but none the less, it's still pretty good for my first time trying the 30 second shot!  And my tripod definantly didn't help.  I need a different one for my Nikon.

Where, oh where......?

I have taken a few Christmas photos but am unable to load them to my blog.  I am Apple-less.  I t has been over a week that I've had to send my macbook in for repair.  I feel nude without it.  I miss it oh so much!  Once it is back in my hands there will be many new photos, that is if I haven't lost any!  When, oh when will they call???
