Here's our new Photo Assignment: 'Tis the Season'…so:

Anything to do with the holiday season. Let your imagination run wild! Then submit your favorite image from the current holiday season. I’ll keep the assignment up for about two weeks to include New Year’s as well. 

Challenge yourself to come up with a really strong photograph!

Cheers! –DiscerningPhotogWink

This is from a ultra-decorated house nearby.  The owner gave me permission to wander around his yard taking pictures of his various decorations.  This one was my favorite.

One of several color-changing figures in my Christmas decorations.  The snowman, who changed color continuously, carries a fiber optic "tree."

This year my girl-friend and her friend went out and gave some serenades to family members and very good friends. They rang the bell and immediately started with some traditional christmas music tunes in front of the house and surprised them all. Here they blew their trumpets at their first musical teacher's place, who and her visitors joined in singing. Her teachers parents are disabled an stuck to their home, but heard tunes via phone, which I believe they also enjoyed. It brought so much joy and fun to all of us! Even that it's late, Merry Christmas!

I took this picture with the new knowledge of how to take a meter reading and how to adjust my ISO, shutter speed, and aperture.  This is all so new to me, however I am enjoying all of this new knowledge.  This is a picture that I took of a house in my Christmas village.
