More Ornaments

Boy is it ever hard work to take pictures of ornaments.  Every shot has to be carefully framed, which involves adjusting the tripod height a few times, then focused, which involves moving the tripod towards or away from the tree (and trying to figure out how close you can get to the tree without knocking it over).  Then the auto-focus needs some fiddling with.  Then I make sure my shutter speed is more or less right.  Then I take a picture.  But that's not all.  More likely than not the picture will be too light or two dark and I have to fiddle again with the shutter speed, and if I'm not careful I have to repeat the whole focusing bit again.

That's not to say I don't absolutely love doing it. :)
