Christmas Tree

Christmas Trees are curious things.

Why are we compelled to drag these things into our house and dress them up with baubles?  What is even more curious is we amass an army of those baubles over a lifetime.  I think we have at least a million of them at our house.

I took a picture of every Christmas tree I visited this year.  It seems the best pictures came from our parent's trees.

The pictures of our tree would be delete-worthy if I didn't want to keep a record shot! To be fair, my intention was to create a ridiculous over-the-top HDR image.  The snag in that plan is my software wants to render the lights as big black holes.  Nice.  I could use other software, and I may.  But, for now, it is a broken idea.
