I think I have nearly everything I could wish for. With exception to some seriously expensive things like yachts and mansions on the hill enzo's and trips to exotic places.

The things I need are

more time to do the things I really need to get done.

and

a slightly bigger house would probably make our lives a bit easier.

P.E.A.C.E.

I have done this before, but now my only wish is for my husband Peter, to get well, and beat this cancer, re the treatment he has to have in the "New Year".....
It is definately, my one and only wish for Christams.....

Okay, subject to change (it's not even Thanksgiving yet, Christmas spirit isn't supposed to start until Friday!)

1. studio backdrops - any kind (and...umm...a stand to hang them on)
2. a light tent - any size. Painting my photo room red was really stupid.
3. lensbaby - for Canon
4. cable release for 20d
5. craft materials/fabric/yarn - collections of leftovers, miscellaneous, scraps, anything to add to my crafting stash. Likewise with crafty tools. (Not human kind of tool, please.)
6. fisheye lens - canon compatible
7. lightmeter
8. long, entertaining emails from witty individuals sent to me during cst work hours
9. essential oils - those are fun, right?
10. some photo/lighting skillllzzzz and/or someone local who shoots in a photojournalistic style who will let me shadow them.

Trying to answer four of mk's wishes in one go

1/ backdrops
Try using cookies/ gobos
one example
another example

2/ light tent
Build one for $10

7/ Lightmeter
You don't need one

10/ Lighting skills
Start here

So here's my list

1 Lots of votes for my entry at jpgmag
2 more volunteers/victims/people for me to photograph
3 Small flashes with manual control (Nikon SB 28s or similar)
4 Lots of links to inspirational portrait photographers who use amazing lighting
5 an end to me getting into unproductive discussions online
6 more people becoming aware of the fantastic RadiantVista community
7 collapsible/ folding silver umbrella
8 a resurgence of the portrait lighting thread and a focus on how to collaborate well with the subjects
9 an end to the HDR madness
10 Pocket wizards or some other radio remotes (I think I'll ebay these)

My list...

1. A renewal of my membership which is up 12/20 (which was a gift last year, and my finances are worse this year than they were last year). Received - Thank you JP!!! (I don't know how to do the cross out).

2. A P&S for my 7 year old. Coming via Louis! Thank you soooooo very much!

3. Photoshop for Dummy's in a real book (I have an ebook, but it would kill me in ink to print it). Or any other photo books. Received - Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Deb!

4. A little talent ;P
5. Better finances!
6. Extended family peace.
7. Some real pain relief for my grandmother.
8. World peace. (Which would probably happen before my family all makes peace with each other at the same time :)
9. A backdrop.
10. My OWN home!

1. Postcards sent from outside of North America. Sent from Italy with messages written in Italian are the most desirable.

I'll sent you one from Rio, written in portuguese, if you'd like.:)

I have an 'old' motherboard that I'm not using that you are welcome to, if that would be a start. I need to check what it is - can't remember off hand.
