Covid Self Portrait 1 of 2

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has recently told us: “A normal Christmas is, quite frankly,
right out of the question.” This is me coming to grips with the fact that our grandson and
his parents won’t be spending the Christmas holidays with us this year, as they usually do.

(Actually I made this photo as a private joke for our grandson. My wife talked me into
posting it on PBase, so she is at least partly to blame for this assault on your senses.)

Best viewed at original size.

Nikon DF ,Tokina 100mm f/2.8 AT-X Pro Macro
1/200s f/11.0 at 100.0mm iso100 full exif

LOVE it. Very fun in light of the subject which is sad but hopefully shortlived. V

Ha, your wife was right to have you post this. Gave me a smile and we all need more of those these days. Hope you can do FaceTime or Zoom with your family.

This is a portrait of a crazed man :0)...but the light is beautiful. It really is too bad about Christmas, we are the one's that normally host the family party...30+ people in all but Marian looks on the bright side...much less work for us :0) V
