Advent Calendars

A close up study of our Advent Calendars.

Again not a very creative shot and a bit rushed too....I've got reflected highlights from our dining room lights and uneven light over the image.

My wife's, my daughter's, mine and a special one for Ruby ....jumbo turkey bones !!! She was a bit perplexed when I opened hers, I think she was more interested in the contents and smells from mine.

Still one morre pic to post from earlier in the week, but I wanted to post this on 01 December !

I messed about with the contrast and colours to give the image a bit more impact

I am feeling very deprived , we haven' t got any Advent calenders in this house, will have to get one tomorrow !!! A doggy one too , Judith bought Monty one but these are the first I have seen..must not be going in the right shops !

Have failed to get anything in time so the pressure's really on now...will have to find them a good Christmas present ...

[Anita]

The milky bars are on you then! I'm not surprised Ruby was more interested in your calendars. She's a dog of good taste!

[Juliette Packham]

now i'm starting to feel left out, I seem to be the only one without a calandar!! (mind you, it'd defeat the object opening 5 days at a time!!)

[Judith Greenwood]

Oh - your doggy one looks more festive than mine!

I love Advent calendars. I have a wonderful online one which shows all the sites ( and sights) of London. I can,t wait to get up each morning and see what is in store for me. It looks like your whole family enjoys the feeling of anticipation,
