Away in a manger!
Nov 30, 2013 11:35:53 #
Built a nativity manger a week before Thanksgiving for my wife. I built it in sections so as to take it apart for easier storage. 8X4 in the front tapered to 7X3 in the back with plexiglass over the front to keep snow. I hope the weather isn't to bad so as to get snow blowing in between the gaps in the cedar dog eared boards I used for the sides and back as they are not perfectly straight edges on them.
adjusted in PP for color as it was cold out that night.

I like the first photo better, even though it's a little darker. It seems that the lights give the scene a warmer glow, in that one than the other one. The second just seems too sterile. I don't know if you catch my meaning, but I hope you do. Good photos and great job on the nativity.

Thank you daninr8, yes the 1st one is my favorite but I brightened the 2nd one for a clearer view of the scene.
