Merry Christmas!

This is my first Christmas with the camera and I'm loving it! There are so many opportunities to take photos all around the house! Some of the photos that I took were of ornaments. I tried to backlight them as much as I could, lighting them up from behind and giving a Christmassy vibe. Christmas is about love and family, and what is family without pets? So, one of my first ideas was to take photos of my dogs, like my chocolate Lab, Lady Dave! I put them in front of the Christmas tree, and although they were not particularly happy with me, the glow of the lights bounced off their fur for a look in the Christmas spirit. They look like they're waiting for Santa Paws, for sure! They didn't really want to sit or look at me, but I managed to get a few good photos. Christmas is a wonderful time for photos, because everything is so happy and jolly. It is, indeed, the most wonderful time of the year, especially if you're a photographer! Merry Christmas, everyone!
