Waiting Their Turn

Taken Thanksgiving Day. Because a lot of our family members are blessed with talent (present company excluded) our Thanksgiving Day celebration traditionally includes a talent show. Here two aspiring musicians await their respective turns.

Cousins

We were in Teague, Texas yesterday for a family Thanksgiving get together and of course I took a few pictures. These two photos are of cousins out playing on a playground. For both shots I had my camera's exposure compensation set to -2 and used a Vivitar flash off-camera with a Lumiquest Mini-Soft Box mounted to a monopod.
