My power came back on at 6am, Christmas. The radio woke me up playing "it's begining to look a lot like Christmas" AEP and everyone are doing a hell of a job!

Thanks for all your comments! Although my electric never went out (thank goodness) my home phone service has been going in and out for the last 4 days. And that includes my DSL! :(

snibbetsj ---> those are just some wild berries growing on the the tree. they are about the size of a medium blueberry....

I honestly can't remember the last time I posted here, but I HAD to sign in to comment on this thread. I love them all, but I especially love the contrast between the red and the blue in the cherry pic, not to mention the focus. And in the last one, is that your reflection? And do you have a golden lab?? The clarity in the ice is just amazing.

I would say I'm speechless, but it appears as though I'm rambling. lol! Just beautiful. All of them.

Love these shots. The last one in the series really does it for me. Love the sharpness.

I think they suck! Actually I'm kidding! I only say that because I'm jealous!

Scrubman,
What lens were you using there? They're so sharp you could cut yourself!

Its just an A80 fixed lens with no adapters. Plus maybe a smidge of PhotoShop. ;)
