Spoiler for anybody who hasn't gotten my Christmas card yet. These are the photos I shot to pick one to go along with the card:
Christmas Eve... I tried to take some of those "glowing" tree shots and I got laser eyes on all the dogs in several of the photos. So forgive the weird looking eyes in some of these. I thought to myself "I am buying an external flash in the new year!" and then I saw how much they cost and NEVERMIND. I'll just shoot with the lights on and forget this.
Perfect Auggie.
Little P.
Ahhh Miss Pepper!
And Georgie who was pissing my mom off mostly because she listens to me better than she listens to my mom...
Then I tried close up shots on everybody, which worked better as far as the camera settings went, but since I had my focus on manual because the autofocus kept trying to focus on the tree instead of the dogs, Auggie and Payton didn't come out in focus. I'm horrible with manual focus. It looks sharp on the preview screen and then bam, out of focus when I open the photo.
