Kirsty and Matt do Christmas Social Media

My daughter Kirsty and her husband Matt doing Christmas Social Media on Christmas Day morning at our house.

Whether it be Facebook / Facetime / Instagram / Snapchat / Twitter / Whatsapp / Text or Email, social media is a great way to keep in touch with friends and family at Christmas. Oh and we do talking to each other too :)

The nearest I get to social media is photosharing on 365 / Flickr and Google+, although I utilise whatsapp for mobile communications :)

Kirsty, Matt, Jane and Claire all use iphones for mobile technology, whereas I am firmly in the android camp :)

Merry Christmas, Have a great Boxing Day

Shot on my 50mm, with a wide open aperture and edited in GIMP / G'MIC to create the mono finish.



You've caught such natural expressions, Phil!

It always amuses me seeing couples on their phones texting - I do wonder if they are texting, FBing, etc each other!! Lovely shot Phil.

I think Kirsty has many of your face features, Phil. Am I right? I don't like all these fancy mobiles, tablets ect. Most of the time my children and grandchildren are more interested in them than on a proper face to face conversation.
