Funny! Nicely lit and photographed, it's a Thanksgiving cornucopia with barbecue chips. The only criticism I would have is that there's too much dead space at the top, and not enough at the bottom. It looks like you ran out of table at the bottom, so not much to do about that, but I might have gone with a square crop to remove some of the top.

This is a really lovely portrait. I'm guessing it would score better if you hit the voters a little harder over the head with the brown, but it's still a nice shot.

Nice. I like how the hand is so light it almost glows, without being blown out. Lots of great detail in the sweater, too.

Aloha's First Christmas

Thanks for your votes, everyone. This is my best finish so far, and I'm really pleased. The first shot I took (with the date set to 2005) had a better expression on the dog's face, and the arrangement of the lights looked more natural, but this is the best one I could get once I had the date set right. And I had a problem (since fixed) with pictures uploaded to DPC being much darker than what I see on my monitor. So, considering those things, I think 22nd is great!

This is definitely going to be my Christmas card next year!

Yuk! I'm not sure if it's art, or just disgusting.
