Christmas is coming...

Had to play with a few of my western ornaments in the late afternoon sunshine. =) Took 177 pics and only satisfied with this one. LOL! There's always tomorrow!

Nice detailed photo!

@myhrhelper Thank you, Kathy!

[Elaine]

Great with the brown of the ornament against the muted colors of the background. The sun hitting the edges adds a nice detail.

@luvs2scuba2 Thank you very much, Elaine! You have a great eye! I hadn't noticed it until you said so. =)

[Sharon]

Cute ornament and love the background colors!

[Mags]

@twinsplusone Thank you very much, Sharon!

[karenann]

I'd be satisfied with that one too . . for sure. Love the pof. Great background colors. Isn't that the truth about taking photos tho? I can take that many and not be happy with ANY! Just deleted bunches of them last night . . what a headache. :)

@karenann Thank you so much, Karen! Yep, my professor used to say that you could take a whole role of 36 exposure film and be lucky if you had one perfect shot in every detail! Course, with a digital we just keep clicking away! With film, you had to be more careful with tree branches growing out people heads, etc.! LOL!

[Susan T]

This is an awesome shot and ornament!

@soozieqt Thank you very much, Susan! =)
