We had a nice Christmas Eve with Becca's cousin's family. We then set up this shot with a speedlight in the book. I should have put a colored filter on the flash to match the white balance to the background a little better. Maybe I'll try again next year.

The Christmas tree. With the different white balance outside, it almost looks like snow out there, but it doesn't look like we'll be getting any snow before Christmas.

The Christmas tree. This was the first year in a very long time, that we were able to leave presents under the tree before Christmas Day. We've always had someone that would try to open presents early.

An ornament on the tree. I tried to make it more interesting with the tilt lens, but I'm not sure it made much difference.

Still haven't gotten over my cold, so I didn't end up shooting anything with my SLR. I just shot this sunrise with my iphone.

We got Elizabeth and Jack new kindles, and gave them to them before Christmas. And since we had an extra, Maggie took it. She's now reading the first Harry Potter book on it. Maggie also likes wearing old glasses without the lenses, because she wants to be like her older sister who wears glasses.

Our elf on the shelf doesn't do much except hide. I take a photo of it each day so I can try not to repeat hiding places. This was the only photo I took today.

Feeling pretty crappy, but at least the O2 levels are fine. Tested negative for covid. I'm kinda hoping it's RSV, so I'll have some sort of immunity to it when the baby comes.
