For Old Time's Sake

As I was enjoying the Christmas carolers on my front porch this evening I saw one of my favorite subjects behind them. I had to try for a shot. With my vision still very splotchy I am not sure how good it is but it felt good to try again. Hand held and increased contrast is the only editing for this questionable shot.

I still don' t have it in me to individually reply to such a great response. I hadn't noticed it was # 2000 for me but feel it is very appropriate that a moon shot mark that milestone for me. I didn't even know what "trending" is but feel honored to be there. I also appreciate all the FAVs. You are the best! Thanks again to all of you for such a nice welcome.
