Description

f/9.5, 1/45s, 100 mm (35 mm equiv 159 mm), ISO 1600, indoors. This is my second attempt at working with raw. These are two of my sweeties, Keith and Graham. They light my life with joy! I hope your holidays are lit with joy too! Mary :-)

Thank you Leanne, Terry, and Adilson for your kind and supportive and loving comments!

I'm not sure I've quite got this down yet, but it is a vast improvement over the original and over the jpeg!!!!

This is another picture taken right after Graham's piano recital.

I hope you three and everyone else on BP has a wonderful holiday season!!! CHEERS to you all! :-) Mary

PS lets also remember the people in New Orleans and other less fortunate places and send them some cheer, too!! #2181943
