Raleigh Downtown at Christmas
To me, this image says winter in the south. This was taken on Fayetteville Street in downtown Raleigh, NC, last week. I don't usually shoot black and white, but was experimenting with a new camera. There is nothing really special about this shot( Fayetteville Street-2.jpg ) , but for some reason I find it compelling. Comments?

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to everyone, even if today is the 27th!!!
This year we had to wait till the day after Christmas for our family Christmas with my daughter, because her dad had to work on Christmas Eve. It was so worth the wait, though. We had a blast, and as the photos show, my daughter and I ended up with bows and ribbons on our heads, hands, and round our necks. My husband took the second and third photographs. Heidi cat finally figured out my daughter is awesome, and curled up with her for some good lovin' before we opened presents. My lil girl is becoming such a young lady so quickly!
The very first, and then the second 3 photographs I took. The elephant is hand made by a wonderful lady from India my daughter met through her church~we have matching elephants, except hers has one yellow eye, one white eye. The watch on my arm is from my husband, and the hematite and Swarovski bracelet I'm wearing is from my daughter, too. It was an awesome day for us, and both of our cats got plenty of loving and play time with us, along with a catnip toy for each of them.
This morning it is snowing, and I have already taken pictures of it; I'll try to post them tomorrow.
Merry Christmas, everyone... I hope yours was as awesome as ours was! ;)

I had to give my mare away because I can't take her to college. Some of the pictures aren't that great, but this is just a post to show her off a little bit.
Let's see random facts: She's 25, Saddlebred Mix, trained for Endurance Racing, in perfect health, sassy, loves chaos, noise, trailers, and new experiences. She's about 16hh, has smooth gaits, she'll also jump and herd cattle, but she wont do dressage.

Christmas Theme

Had to send my computer to the hospital for a week due to a bad virus. Back online now-looks like it was a very quiet week here at Photographica while I was away. I received my new lens in the mail during the week which I was excited about. Unfortunately I didn't have much time to practice. Here's a few things I did come up with, Christmas of course!
Santa helps out in the kitchen. The angel ornament was giving to me in Kindergarten (long time ago!) and Chappie's ornament was my grandmothers-very, very long time ago!
Hope you enjoy!
Bi-Weekly Challenge: "What Christmas means to me...."
This will be my kids and mine first Christmas without my wife, Tina. It's been a day-by-day thing. Some days are better than others. What helps is spending time with my nephew A.J. This is is his first Christmas. He was born on March 31, about 7 weeks after Tina's passing. He is pure joy. We all love him so much. And that head. Somehow he picked up the nickname "Angus" at a family gathering last weekend.
So... what Christmas means to me is family, especially the kids. Family Angus

I love all the beautiful trees and decorations Tree_and_Decorations although I haven't had a normal tree for years, as we always are in Nevada with my family. We just do a small tree so the cat wouldn't have a party in it.
