So we started the christmas vacation off by traveling. When we got to our destination for the first day, we awoke to a hoar frost. I Love this kind of frost. I first saw this stuff 2 years ago and since then I always wanted to get some shots. So I finally got some.

So, my mom had me take this picture. What a pain to do! This was a tough shot, because of the ambient light and the difficult texture of the crystal. I like it though. Quite fun.

So....I took this shot by WAY over exposing. This was done by accident, however, when I adjusted it, it turns out to be a cool technique. Santa's Marching band....the bane of my existence. Growing up, my Mom would play this thing for hours on end. I hate those little men with their mallets and their striking the bells.....curse who ever invented them. This pictures suits them. They are evil. They are cruel....They are .... Santa's marching band.

I LOVE bokeh! This is when the lights are represented more with a pattern than with a specific defined light. Holiday Lights are great! Hope your holidays are bright.
