First was to finish a major paper for her final grade, second was to catch up on sleep, and third was to get our Christmas tree up and decorated. This weeks PAW is really a family snapshot, but sometimes items of vast personal importance can be trivial. For example, the reed organ in the background was carried by wagon from Connecticut to Nebraska in the 1860's and was restored by SWMBO's Grandfather. The candlesticks in the background were turned by my father under duress from my mother who wanted two inch candles for a Thanksgiving meal many years ago. So, sometimes, trivial items of little meaning to outsiders are very important. Anyway, first up: http://gallery.leica-users.org/album317/maryandthelights Second, getting busted is sometimes fun. http://gallery.leica-users.org/album317/maryglares Last, my personal favorite although flawed as a photograph by an overly bright background and a just missed focus. http://gallery.leica-users.org/album317/marysettinglights So, to all of my many friends at the LUG saloon, have a wonderful end of year. Spend time with your loved ones; reflect on those departed; do at least one act of charity toward the undeserving; and keep pushing that shutter, who knows what could happen. Don don.dory@gmail.com
