We have established a tradition of taking multiple shots of community christmas decorations, church scene, different homes that are well decorated, and Christmas morning with the family. Process and put the two daughters to work on making a cd slide show with music etc. Sometimes the girls add there on brand of humor via PS etc. I have found this to be a good way to exercise and improve ones camera/lens knowledge especially late evening and night time shoots etc. I find it a enjoyable useful project each year. We make several copies and mail to our distant family relatives, all seem to enjoy and history is recorded...
