santa’s face

While Christmas shopping with my son, I came upon these glasses.  I put them on and had immediately put them in the shopping basket.  Alex suggested I try photographing through them, so I did.

Submitted for Shadow Shot Sunday #135.  There are some really lame shadows in the first shot, which was my excuse to share the second ;-)   Click on the image to enlarge.

      I just did! He and some elves just drove past my home! Our local fire department has a tradition where Santa rides in the fire truck and gives candy canes to the kids and dog biscuits for the dogs (I’m not sure what they do for the cats!)

  4. I always enjoy your shadow shots, Woody, lame or otherwise. I do love the second one though! Lovely Christmasy feeling and colors! Have a great weekend!

    This non-stylish eyewear seems to be destined to sit on a shelf. Yet, forgetting about its looks and looking through them is an eye-opener in many ways. The floating Santas are unique an so cool!

    How cute! It took me a few seconds to realise that I was looking at colourful glowing santas in the second photo! That’s neat. Reminds me a little of an old viewmaster.

    I hope you and your family have a lovely Christmas :)

    It just doesn’t take much to have fun this time of year, does it!!!

  14. Really love the second shot…the way the color and light morphs from the darkness.

  15. Love these quirky photos! Strange glasses produce strange sights! The parade of light in the second photo is magical!
