That title's mostly because I've really got to be done with all the Christmas shots. I waited till after Christmas to get any and It's way past Christmas now, so this will be my last Christmas-themed shot of the year. It's an HDR of one of my favorite ornaments on our tree, a German snowman. I know, it's random. The reason I picked it was that a year ago around this time, when I had just gotten my D80 and hadn't yet started my Project 365, so the picture never got posted anywhere but Flickr. I really liked it, and this year instead of doing a long-exposure snowman shot, I went for the HDR snowman shot. It turns out that Christmas tree HDR's turn out REALLY well. I had a fun time shooting pretty much every inch of my Christmas trees and I even got 10 or so good HDR composites out of it.

Hey Steven--Awesome blog--your Mom just told me about it tonight--I love all the pics you've got quite a talent on your hands--I'm going to take some more time and check out more than just the first page later.
Take Care,

Sorry I spelled your name wrong!!!!
That's ok :) Thanks for checking out my blog! I'm excited it's almost a completed project now. Thank you for looking and commenting!
Hey Steve, looks like you've got some new observers! This tiny snowman captures the spirit, even if he is carrying a german flag ;) As I'm looking at it -- it looks pretty normal - granted the lighting is dimmed, the tree lights kind of have a more sparkly quality. Is all that achieved with the HDR?
Now, that is just plain CUTE. He seems to have a lone spot on the tree, just a bit of tinsel and a few sparkly lights, but no companion ornaments! Christmas tree and HDR, sounds like you had a blast with that combination.
