They've Served us Well... They Will Never Be Forgotten!
There's nothing more saddening than opening up that box of glass ornaments and finding a couple of broken ones.
It happens every year at our house. The casualties mount and every few years we have to run to the store and replenish our troops.
Thanks, I was a little reluctant about doing this. I knew these ornaments were highly reflective and I do not have the proper studio to shoot these with minimal reflections. But since I took a chance with shooting it on a mirror I thought what the heck. It's kind of interesting. You can sort of make out my den behind me. I did an ornament shot last year in a light tent and it really looked ridiculous. You could see the light tent opening and the camera. It was pretty much light tent in your face. So for this I wanted a bit of a home style ambiance in the reflections.
Nice photo; you captured it well. I will be opening up my storage box of ornaments in a day or two -- and I hope all remains happy. But you never know. Jim
