Hopefully being the holiday season, everyone can come up with at least one pic to represent this time of year, whether it be Christmas, New Year's, Boxing day test, Sydney to Hobart or just lounging by the pool in the backyard.

Anything to do with this time of year is fine.

Rules..

See here for the general rules (http://www.aulro.com/afvb/camera-corner/82504-photo-comp-rules.html).

Also..

1. Posting two pictures is encouraged but only one pic can be an old photo (shot before 24/12/2009).

2. Photoshop is fine. Just remember, less is more.

3. POST PICS!!!!!

So no one has ever been on holidays?

lol. I don't think you are the only one. The next topic sort of swamped it with it's interesting rules, I think.

I wasn't going to post anything until at least 2 others had posted something but I'm going away for a couple of days from tomorrow so I'm running out of time.

Happy New Year!

As much fun as having a hole in the head? :)

I'll play.

I had only JUST got my camera so I hadn't figured out auto focus yet.. So pretend its in focus.. and framed properly.

And this is probably my best shot of the fireworks.

nice pics

As it is; warm Christmas is but a memory

Blue sky too is but a memory. No point in going out and seeing new places if they were all the same though. Enjoy it being cold as even after a few years it is still novel to me.

Means you can do funny things to your pets:

Now explain to me again why the pets hide when I bring out the camera?


And its also a reason to go somewhere crowded (Boxing Day 2009):
