To keep in the spirit of the board cleanup, I thought I'd start a general holiday 2010 thread for everyone to share their photos in. I'll start off. Here is a shot I took this morning for our neighbor's Christmas Card.

Thanks, Kyle! Can't wait to see it, your kids are adorable.

Here's another I took today while decorating the tree. A little blurry, but still cute enough that I had to share it.

This thread has already slipped back to page 2, people! It's the holiday season and with all you shutterbugs out there, I can't believe there aren't more contributions. Let's see 'em!

Here's another one from me. I took pictures of my newborn niece today for my Brother/Sister-in-Law to use for their Christmas card/birth announcement. This is one of my favorites from the day, only because it was one of very few with her eyes open.

Between youngest DS being sick, me being sick and DD being sick over the last 2+ weeks, I haven't had much of a chance to get any holiday photos.

Last night we had our annual family Christmas party and I got a few shots before DD got sick...

I don't normally have many pictures from Christmas day. We have Christmas dinner at my house, and I don't usually get a whole lot of help, so instead of taking pictures, I'm pulling out my hair and freaking out over everything.

I took a few of my tree last night. I'm pretty happy with them.

Just thought I'd share a local holiday tradition that some folks who don't live near water or ocean may not have seen before - a fun and long-running tradition in many Florida towns is for boat owners to decorate their boats with Christmas lights and ornaments, and parade them through the intercoastal waterways in town at night...local parks put up bleachers, music and fireworks blare, the boats themselves usually have their own 'theme' with music, and characters dressed aboard the boats too. It's a fun little holiday tradition, and our town just had their 34th this past weekend.

I was invited to a boat parade party at a friend's house on the intercoastal, and was just there to enjoy the show, have some food and drink, and hang with friends. I happened to have my camera with me for personal shots of friends and such, and had only brought the camera with the 18-250mm attached - certainly not the lens to pick for shooting moving boats at night from 50-70 feet. But I decided last-minute to just crank up the ISO and give it a go for fun - realizing that I've never actually photographed the boat parade before...it ended up being fun, and next time I think I'm going to bring a fast lens and actually plan to photograph the parade. I ended up cranking to ISO3200 and the occasional ISO6400, handheld, and panning with the boats with the widest aperture I could get out of the 18-250. So they're not my best work - but it was a lot of fun, and I thought you all might enjoy a look at the work that these folks put into decorating their boats!

Lots of lights:

Noone said the boat had to be big...or even have a motor!:

Though of course, some WERE big:

Some had quite elaborate themes:

And lots of actors aboard too:

Little boats were still proudly lit and themed:

That blue bit on the bow is a person...covered in lights and dancing:

More holiday lights and color:

Some had messages to deliver (animal rescue):

Lots of Santas aboard the boats:
