    holiday pictures!

    Well, my sister's home for the first time in 1.5 years, and we needed some holiday shots.

    my parents:
    I love my mom's expression, and it's mainly why I like this one the most, even if the parents are looking at different spots...

    me and my sis:
    not a fan of my arm, but the expression is the best, and I can edit that out later.

    one point goes to the first person who can recognize the set-up...

    Nice going Brent. I love to see Holiday images and how they are done. Thanks to Ben for including the link I missed it the first time around. Both my daughters did holiday photos for their Christmas Cards and ask me to do Post Processing for them before they had the cards done. In their words here are the pictures now, "work your magic on them." Oh I wish I had had your skills but I did the best I could and emailed them back.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Re: holiday pictures!

    haha, i guess not! if either of you guys want any help, I would be glad to provide it, but I'm sure you will do well enough on your own! I have another idea for a shot as well, so we'll see how that goes. I just need to get a less translucent fabric for my light panel. this one has the light shine right through.
