This Day!: 25 December Daily Photo Ideas

That's right. I said December. It's only a couple days away, you know. YIKES!!! If you are like me, your calendar is full of baking, gatherings, festivities, dinner parties, progressive parties, exchanges, and sharing.

I do not want to miss the photo opportunities of special times and people. So, this is my quest. Through the month of December, I will shoot a lot with my 50mm lens to help with low light situations. I will also grab my 70-300mm lens for stealth close ups and details from a distance.

I will shoot a lot on some days, only a picture or two on others. I want to enjoy the month and make sure I'm in at least a few photos. Must remember to set up the tripod.

Want to join me in my quest for 25 photos? I may not get every single one of them listed. But I'm definitely going to give it a try. Here's the list:

Something Red
A list
The Christmas tree
Presents wrapped under the tree
Something warm and tasty
A candy cane, or five
A wreath with a red bow
Stamped and addressed Christmas cards
Santa Claus
Away in a manger
Ribbons and bows
Something sticky
Reindeer
A decked hall
Silver bells
A hippopotamus
Under the mistletoe
A cup of cheer
Toys in every store
A winter wonderland
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Holiday greetings
A shining star
Children, sleeping
The number "25"

I may or may not get a linky up for those who would like to participate. If any of you can help me with that I would be most appreciative. Happy capturing.

Peace and Joy,
Susan
