25 Days of Christmas [Day12]

Our Daily Challenge - "I am":

 

Hello, my name is Barb and I AM A BOKEHOLIC! I think I need a 12 step program! :)

 

This candle holder is one of my fondest memories of childhood Christmases. I love the sweet sound the little bells make when the angels turn around.

 

BTW....Right after I took this shot, I bumped my tripod and it toppled over and smacked the wood floor (with my expensive macro lens). Glass everywhere! As far as I can tell it was only the UV filter that was damaged, but the filter frame was so bent my husband had to work for a long time to PRY it off the lens. We're hoping the lens's threads are not stripped or damaged so I can put a new filter on. When I first picked up the camera all I got was error messages, but after several times of turning off and on, it sprang to life and seems to be working fine. Macro seems to work fine too. Dodged a bullet there, I think! Fingers crossed that I can get a new filter on since I am 100% sure that is what spared my lens.
