All Boxed Up
by lanakay


I spent the better part of today taking all my Christmas decorations down. The boxes shown are just a small part of them. There's five more boxes on the floor, plus a couple of things I haven't put away yet.

I don't doubt they'll be even more next year. The first thing I look for at Flea Markets and yard sales is Christmas stuff.

Canon PowerShot SX50 HS
1/30s f/3.4 at 4.3mm iso1600 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Packing the Christmas things away for another year is always kind of sad. I agree with Lisa that leaving the Santa snow globe out tells us all we need to know what the photo is about. Nicely photographed. Great for the New Years Day Challenge.

You must have a LOT of Christmas stuff and you obviously take time when putting them away so that they are safe. I like that the snow globe is on top, signaling exactly what is in the boxes. I also think I see a computer mouse in the bottom right corner and part of a laptop? Documenting what you have?

Good way to document the end of another Christmas. All I do is pick up my artificial tree and put it back out in the garage. LOL

Lana, I was going to do a similar shot. Glad I didn't now. LOL Your day was filled like mine was. Great shot and very telling that the Christmas season is over.

What a perfect topic to shoot for your New Year's Day image, Lana. I like this very much - and I too have many, many boxes!! ;)
