Challenge: "Christmas Free For All" Dec. 24th - Dec. 26th 2018
Welcome to the Christmas Free For All Ya'll, With the Holiday upon us, I thought we could all use an extended Free time.
For the next three days you can post what ever you want to share with us, Something New, Something Old, Something you've posted before even..
I know I still have things to get done before the 25th, and I'm sure you do as well..
So I'll start off with an oldie from a Christmas Long Ago when I was 13...Followed by Scenes from other Past Christmases.

Thanks for the start off Lesley. I have some oldies but can't go diving for them now. Busy with Christmas #1 starting tomorrow morning and #2 starts tomorrow night, Christmas Eve through Christmas Day. A fun but exhausting time. I doubt I'll get to post until Free For All is almost history, so I wanted to send this greeting to all my UHH friends:
The Photog’s Christmas
It’s the time of year for a photog to reflect…
There’ve been landscapes, still life, smoke, water drops and yet,
Another year passes and no “big dollar” shot did I get.
With tripod, lenses, feet that zoom; I’m out capture a winning new “best”
Cryptic letters everywhere I look: ISO, Av, Tv, M and P,
Auto, WB, Sports, Fireworks, Portrait - oh mercy me! .
Help! Help! What should my settings be?
“mm”s, f stops and JPEG or RAW? I only wanted to “capture” a tree!
Intervals, bulb, pixels, filters and flash,
Clouds, PS, LR, Photomatrix, On1- computer PLEASE don’t crash.
Remote, AF, MF, sensor, mirrorless, and reviews that clash.
Be careful -Videos, YouTube, Classes, and Workshops can eat up the cash.
“DSLRs are so easy to use, “ words perhaps said to you too.
So, why did mine come with 500 pages of fine print to peruse?
My computer boasts more memory than I - too true!
And another back-up system? How long before I blow a fuse?.
Santa, I’d really love a lens, and some gear,
But I’ve no $$ left to buy programs or lenses this year!
Please be generous to my UHH friends so special and dear.
Thanks to them, I’m no longer clueless
AND my camera brings joy, not fear.
From my camera to yours.
Having some fun with my Grandson and a display!
He "got" me

Ocracoke Island sunset 12/21/12, “End of the world”: the wind was so strong, sending sand in streams, that I used a low resolution iPod rather than a good camera, and got what I consider one of my very best captures.
