The Christmas Season is Upon Us


I love Christmas!  I love Christmas music, the lights, the sounds, the happy faces.  I love Christmas day, and am always disappointed when it ends, and I love the Christmas season.  Starting today, every post through Christmas Day will be Christmas related.  Last night my photographer friend, Chad, and I went back Salt Lake City's Temple Square to get some pictures of the beauty there.  We tried to get our wives to go with us, but they wisely declined the opportunity to practically freeze to death.  I have lived and traveled many places throughout the world in my life, and I have seen some beautiful Christmas displays, but nothing compares to Temple Square.  Today's photo is of the Assembly Hall which is one of the several buildings on Temple Square.  The Mormon Church wants to make certain that everyone knows that they honor and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.  Most of the photos you will see in the next three weeks will be from last nights excursion.

By the way, I practiced and learned a few photography tricks and tips in the process and I'll throw in some discussion on some of that along the way.

Please feel free to leave your comments on this or any of the photos any time.

Beautiful! I agree with you on Christmas, it's just a joyous time of year, especially when you look past the consumer angle.

Bold name for a blog, but I have to say you appear to be living up to it! :)

Thanks for the visit, always nice to "meet" another photographer that gives me inspiration. I'll be back as well!

When you do it - you do it in style!
That goes for the photo, its subject and this blog (I had a look around). There can be no doubt that you are aiming for the title :-)

PS Thank you for the visit!
