Christmas Post your holiday photos here

What are you up to this Festive Season, going anywhere nice, or just having family round. Maybe there will be some photo opportunities. It would be interesting to see a photo of where you went or did. I'm off to Paris for new Year, so hopefully I should get a few good pics........................if only from Euro Disney on NYD So lets see some pics in this thread

Re: Post your holiday photos here

Hi Stephen -

There will be a couple more to follow as the season progresses. I recently visited Tring Brewery who allowed me to take a few pix for a photo challenge on a sister site. When I saw your theme here I immediately thought of this brew as it is only produced at this time of year. I'm sure it gets the festivities off to a good start.

I apologise because I have only used my video camera this holiday season - however I feel sure you won't mind me posting these from Boxing Day last year.

Re: Post your holiday photos here

This was one of a couple of interesting shots taken on Boxing Day. I felt there was something almost Biblical about this shot.

A Christmas Day's morning stroll on St Mary's Beach and I can across a dead Badger with no obvious signs of injury.

Re: Post your holiday photos here

On my way back from Germany Jan and I stopped in Amsterdam for an over night.

I hope you all have had a merry Christmas and looking forward to a healthy New Year.

The Tulips were too good to miss hand held but i'm quite pleased with it - I've made a folder have a quick look

Re: Post your holiday photos here

Here's a shot of my younger daughter, Lara (10), in front of my sister's Christmas tree, taken yesterday





It was taken in available light, @f/2.0 (equivalent 70mm focal length).

Re: Post your holiday photos here

Taken on NY's day on the top of the Mendip hills. It was about 4.10 pm and the light was going rapidly but the frost was still heavy. All though on first appearance this could almost pass for a mono shot but it isn't and I've only adjusted the white balance.
