Default ►►► December Photo Assignment ◄◄◄

Local Landmark

Rules:

Must be taken this month and by you. If you want to do something creative with the pic...have at it. Just don't chop something into the scene that wasn't there to start with.

Have fun !

I could claim the tooth fairy was holding me when I took the pic of the plane, but a slightly more truthful reply would be RIF and I missed part of the reading.

Yep. Had just gotten back from a ride from Palestine to Rusk and back. They had the waiters pass out hot choc and Santa got on at Rusk and passed out Christmas bells to the kids.

I just haven't had the time to get anywhere this month - work, Christmas shopping, home at dark seems to be the routine.

Only shots I've done are the startrails and a few frosty macros.

A hospital room isn't much of a landmark.

Maybe narrow it down to public landmarks which anyone can visit. Not just someone's personal house or car.

Thoughts?
I have been working too much or it has been raining. I finally have a day off so maybe I can find something.
