"The earth has grown old with its burden of care But at Christmas it always is young, The heart of the jewel burns lustrous and fair And its soul full of music breaks the air, When the song of angels is sung."

Photography Tip
It is the season when we will be photographing soft lights, from our Christmas trees and the soft glow of candle light. Here are a few tips to achieve the perfect photo this season
- go grab your tripod, or find a sturdy flat surface to pop your camera on
- turn your white balance to tungsten or auto WB
- turn up the ISO to around 400. This will still give you a nice clean and crisp image. Too high an ISO and the image will become grainy/noisy
- you will need a low shutter speed, hence the flat sturdy surface!
- now point and shoot!
