Tis the season

Well I couldn't let this year pass without snapping a shot of our Christmas tree, so i drug out the trusty tripod and snapped a few. You might be wonder why I needed a tripod, well the setting on this shot were ISO 100, f/22 ss 15 seconds



I was able to considerably shorten that time by bumping the ISO up to 500 for this one still f/22 but only a 4 second exposure



of course they would look nicer without the surround sound speaker in there, or if i straightened the tree skirt, or if the sofa was not in the way.. but you get the idea..
