    The series tells me a story of family traditions. thumb.gif

    Shot #5 looks like one unintended consequence though.... The focal point guy wound up with mickey mouse plate ears. :D

    Patti,
    My favorite type of shots.
    The entire series is just wonderful.
    Storytelling at its best.

    It's a wonderful insight into your holiday tradition. It's making me look forward to ours.clap.gif

    Yes it does, doesn't it. Totally missed that. :D He's our Jude Law look alike although you can't tell very well in that shot.

    Thanks Ed and Liz. The joy of having an adult daughter is that now she and hubby cook the big holiday meals instead. mwink.gif Jen's turned into Martha Stewart much to everyone's delight. thumb.gif

    Nicely done, Patti. I'd chuck the second and last one, but all the others definitely work. I'd drop the second because there is such a disconnect between the two women; it's almost as though you spliced two unrelated photos. And the last one because the subject is pretty much lost in the wine glasses.

    Thanks for the feedback B.D. I'm interested in your choice of #2 to go. Actually the total disconnect between them is what I thought was interesting.

    How about this one to replace the last?

    Thanks. We had a great time - ate too much of course but that's what Thanksgiving is for, right?

    Re: the replacement shot. The look on the person's face who is ringing the bell is "Priceless" - oh to have had her husband siting to her right - double looks "Pricelesss".

    This is a very warm, friendly set. The whole set gives me the warm-fuzzy and makes me even more excited for my family gathering this upcoming season. Thank you so much for sharing, Patti!

    Mag was staring at her husband sitting across from her.mwink.gif Too bad I didn't have a wider angle lens.
