Christmas Ornament. I was struck by the
            whimsical moon and stars. The photo is posterized, which makes
            special edges to produce the effect of being a painting rather
            than a photo.

            
 

            


            
Peepers, the hungry dog, meets Christmas
            dinner. I was checking the ham and she showed up. I grabbed a
            camera while I warned her to stay back.

            
 

            


            
Our place at sunset on a snowy evening.
            I've always been fascinated at how snow takes on an ethereal
            glow at sunset. I thought the shadows striped across that carpet
            of white was interesting, too.

The first snowfall in New Hampshire clings
            to whatever it touches and transforms the dreary, tired landscape
            into a winter wonderland.
