Adoration of the Child by Piero di Cosimo (about 1495-1500), Toledo Museum of Art, Toledo, Ohio. The art was displayed against a textured wall covering (that's not noise). This is best when viewed large, which can be accomplished in the slide show mode for the Ohio set, where this is the second photo.
The museum allows photos in some galleries, but no flash, so this is an available-light shot, hand-held. (1/40 sec., f4.5, ISO 1000, 28mm, Canon EOS 40D & Canon EF-S 17-85mm f4.5-5.6 IS USM)

Christmas morning from my house
In 1982 we lived in Amesbury, Massachusetts. My parents came visiting at Christmas. James was 3 at the time and Carolyn was 10 months. It was her first Christmas and my father's last. He died in January, 1983.
I drove my wife and her friends to their annual Dance Club Christmas gathering,last week-end.These were my companions all evening :)
our christmas tree this year, mainly focused on a golden bauble (:
was going to upload a special photo for the last photo of 2009, but this was all i could upload before my storage run out, nevermind. I'll upload it in 2010 ;) ahh that sounds so weird saying that :P
to me this years been strange, i've met some really amazing friends who i'll never forget, but I've also lost some very special friends in a way that is unhealable. I've tried new things, changed alot, learnt alot more, and learned to let go more, but not entirely.
horse riding was amazing in summer, the fast canters down fields with spider surging below me, the jumping, the whole thing was amazing, but winter let it down and I need to get the confidence I had in summer back, quick.
then there was rushing about markets in the snow buying lemon sherbets and going shopping and drinking starbucks, crunching through the leaves, going to bramham, halloween, setting marshmallows on fire, the cinema, pleasure beach.. theres been some amazing times.
Maybe I'll still be on here, this time next year saying how amazing 2010 has been..But i've got to let go of alot of the things of 2009 now, say goodbye & then forget.
hope everyone has an amazing 2010, and that their dreams come true :) xx
goodbye 2009 (:

Trying hard to catch up on my ODC since returning from sunny Florida! It's nice to be back here - it's raining and very cold!!
In my opinion teapots (Christmas teapots including a Christmas teacup) are old fashioned - you must agree!!

(5075Christmascookiesadjemboshptoresamnoinit) This is not a very good quality photograph, but I like it anyway because it shows the colorful Christmas Cookies that my granddaughter made.

My dad and my aunt opening presents. But what did me and my sisters notice? THAT CHAIR. On the right, in the background. Me any my little sis are both absolutely in love with that chair, and wish they'd held on to it. Rich blue, mid-Century design with silver accent thread?? Oh my goodness, how fabulous!
The silver tree to match is super-awesome as well.

My sister got a kitten named Timmy for Christmas. He immediately took charge of the model railroad set and played the part of a giant monster attacking the passengers and terrorizing the countryside. Next he attacked a little wind-up toy that would start out as a double-decker bus, go into a tunnel, and come out the other side as a single level bus, then reverse course to go back through in the other direction and pick up the double deck again. At the end of the movie, someone rings his dinner bell in the kitchen and he goes running off.
I'm trying to figure out if others see this properly on their monitors. Can you see the border? Shadow under the tree? Textured lines behind the tree?
Merry Christmas!
