HOLIDAY PHOTO CHALLENGE! 12/20 - 1/7

In addition to our usual competition (and with permission of our all-powerful photo mod ), seeing as the holiday season is coming up here is a bonus challenge for all of you. I'm sure you all have very fun Christmas stuff planned, so get out your cameras and keep shootin'!

Your challenge is to create a photo which captures some element of holiday spirit.

Take that as broadly as you wish, but remember that the voting will be based on how much the image captures holiday spirit.

Here are the rules:

-The photo must be taken and submitted between 12/20 and 1/7. This should be plenty of time for the film-users, like myself, to get images developed and such.

-If you want to critique the images, do so in the critique thread, but lets keep this thread strictly image submissions and questions regarding the rules.

-Have Fun!


Now go out and shoot!

Just as a note, I told Jon to do this since the original vote was a tie. I still expect the official challenge thread to be posted by Brandon.
