My thoughts on photo's as we enter a day that tends to fill our flash cards and drives with hundreds on images taken around the house and tree. I think it's because family is together and that means trying to capture time.
If the people are waiting for a picture to be taken, it's not letting them be natural, which I think is cutting the photograph short. I love it when I used to grab a image using my Nikromatt, Lumix or any other camera I used and it had people not posing. I feel like those photo's have more life and they tend to feel more about what was going on instead of who showed up (which is still important, just overused I think)
I think people don't know what to do when they are faced with a camera, they understand that how they look in that moment is going to be recorded and kept as a record... Usually when I am aware of this fact I try to take pictures that don't make people look to bad, sometimes those are funny but they usually get tossed...
Shoot many pictures and delete later... give it some time... anyway just some thoughts... hope you have a very merry Christmas and that Christ being born means the world to you as it does me...

some of my favorite pictures are the ones you have from the sidelines... isn't that the best when you capture the look of someone absorbed in something good, but completely unaware of themselves? that's how i want to live life more - like there is no camera. cool thoughts bro.
