Giant Pine Cones

Hung With Care!
 
What a view we had! Charlotte and I were invited by our two year old great grandaughter and her parents to go see Santa Clause Saturday evening. The event was being held in the Rotunda at the new Devon Center.
 
Santa's Line
 
The six story glass rotunda was decorated with the largest pine cones I've ever seen! Live Christmas music was playing to add to the Holiday Spirit!
 
Towering Above The Pine Cones
 
While the kids patiently waited their turn to see Saint Nick, my time was spent walking around trying to find the perfect spot to capture the cones while having the Devon Tower for a background.
 
More Pics and Story Coming Later........................

  5. I love the first picture, and I love this time of the year. Well, my present is here, and it's in a big box weighted about 100 lbs. I'm wondering what's in that box. Damn, I thought I'm going to get a new D4 body or a 600mm lens.

    1. A hundred pounds? That would be one hell of a lens! LOL

  6. Those are huge! The shots are great. I really like all three but I think the first photo is my favorite. All of the pine cones are in focus and you even captured the building in the circular window. Very nice.
