Vegas Christmas decorations were pretty amazing!

The colors are very vivid, that christmas ornament tree thing looks amazing.

I've printed on Kodak Metallic @ Adorama, @ 20x30:



and framed 20x30:

Cool.

I was initially thinking 11x17 or somewhere around there, but finding frames in that size that won't break the bank is a pain in the ass. So I'm settling for 11x14 (I think). I'm probably going to stop at Adorama myself sometime this week to get a better idea of frame sizes and just pick some up before ordering some prints from them.

I had them print another photo of mine that I framed and gave to my brother and his wife for Christmas. Was very satisfied with their printing and shipping.

I was bored lastnight, so I pulled out one of the guns for some detailed shots. Thought this one looked nice...

Enjoy!

Handheld with my 55-200, looking forward to getting a TC before too long.
