Greta entry Raven love the fact that you've really made it look like a proper nativity with all home made costumes and the teacher and indeed the sheep on wheels, I remember being given the part of the very well known long red haired cow in one of our nativity plays  :hmm:.

Ok so my first entry from last year don't think I uploaded it on here but, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, keeping it simple Santa In The Snow



I've got a good idea of some other photos I could use for a 2nd entry but, will wait and see what opportunities December brings first

When thinking outside the box you make the greatest things happen.

Yes it does!

I remember doing some pics when the... what's the name? a freezer? Like a large refrigerator, but not the cold part, just the freeze one.. Anyways, when it needed to be "defrosted", I did some nice pics inside in the ice..

Thanks guys the other one I'm thinking of using is also a snow photo from at least the year before this one, it occurred to me as I was going to bed that I had these photos I took of Santa which would be good so I should look through them and decide on a good one (I seemed to remember I din't upload them because the snow came just after Christmas) actually I've got at least 2 good snow photos because I've got on of my BTCV and Police guys making a mini snowman with real snow that was an interesting task. Trouble is you can never rely on snow coming when you want it for good photos so you've got to be on constant alert and learning from experience balance klickies on top layer of snow otherwise they can sink out of sight in deep snow unless you want a visual indicator of how deep the snow is for klickies! or clearing snow (I took one of Santa sunk in ready to clear the snow)  :flake::snowman:

Love the Christmas Pagent Raven!  And DrDalek, I love the effect of the real snow... it hasn't snowed here yet this year, so it's not really feeling much like Christmas. 
I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)
