Starting the New Year

Well, I return to work for the first time in 2009, in the morning. I'm about to go to sleep, but thought a quick Christmas photo would be nice. It's kind of a fun shoot:

My daughter and son (in-law) needed a Christmas photo for their cards. We kept putting it off until we finally had to do it -- at 1:00 in the morning, making it my latest photo shoot ever. Still, we had a lot of fun.

I always hate the fake "hello-I'm-smiling-for-the-camera" look, so we work for some genuine smiles, which I got in this shot. However, the really fun thing is how I got the smile: after getting a few of the "camera smiles," I know that these two have a terrific sense of fun. So I ask them to think of the last practical joke they played on each other, and here's the result:



What does that tell YOU?
