Christmas 2015

MIXING DC AND MARVEL. My daughter totally just married her new Starfire doll to our Captain America ornament.

 
I love and miss my aunts and their twin children, but there is no communication in that household.

Because of this, I got three copies of the same book, and two of the same shirt. They're crazy.

Some pics, for the interested, but probably don't mean much without context.

Man, I look haggard in South Carolina. It's like there's something in the air.
Also, I am a camera nerd. I think I used 4 different lenses and I set up an umbrella flash for Christmas morning. The tree area wasn't that bright.
 
OMG, We totally tried spatchcocking our turkey this time, and it is definitely the greatest thing. So glad it got mentioned in the Thanksgiving thread.
 
Got this little round beauty today for my Christmas present from my wife.

A 50mm f/1.8 STM, already played with it some tonight, but have to practice a bit more, just from a few test shots of fireworks being set off next door I know that fireworks pictures are going to be much better now.
 
My secret Santa got me 20 bucks in blizzard bucks! And the Heroes of the Storm 50%off everything sale is still going on! It's a Christmas miracle!
 
Our Christmas tree just inexplicably fell forward. Lots of ornaments - many of the good ones - are broken.

It fell where you see the mess, but we leaned the tree against the chair in order to sweep.



Diomedes was nowhere near the tree, too. He generally steered clear of it, actually.
 
You can't have "tree inexplicably fell over" and "Diomedes was nowhere near it" in the same sentence. Haven't you heard about Chekov's cat?

I mean, I know the statement "He was nowhere near the tree" is probably 100% true. The trouble is that you have to append "...by the time it hit the ground" to the end of that.

Wassail is on the stove. Prime rib in the oven. Trying to figure out how I can transport the batter for Yorkshire pudding to my friends' house without it getting warm.
