We have to get one of these out tomorrow in order to have any hope for them to make it to everyone by Christmas.

Which one... Color or B&W?

I'm leaning towards the color since it is Christmas and all. Feels a bit more festive. Either one will immortalize the beard; I think it's days are numbered! :D

    Nice pose and definitely colour…

    …red & green tend to be very seasonal.


    Or perhaps B&W photo, and red & green somewhere in the frame…

    Great expressions and nice poses though!

    I like them both! Only thing that I would have liked to have seen, is you smiling! After all, "Tis the season to be jolly". :D Also, your right ear appears to be a little on the hot side/blown out, compared to the rest of that side of your face, which makes it look a little like it is a fake. But most people are not going to notice that, because they will be glued to your wife's beautiful smile! I think she is getting to like posing for you. I say the same thing about my beard every year, but I grow mine to help keep my chin warm during the cold winter months. Come spring time, I shave it off, and cut my hair quite a bit shorter. I just wish mine would come out darker like yours, instead of white! I guess that is expected when you get older. rolleyes1.gif

    Agree with others. The first one in color is the best.

    probably late
    but I like the color of the first one, but really enjoyed the 3-series card. Great shots and great personality -- to me they are great fun for a Christmas card. Enjoy the holidays!
