The Christmas Tree
Lens: SMC A 50mm 1.7 Camera: K200D ISO: 800 Shutter Speed: 1/8s Aperture: F5

My wife and I spent the evening decorating the tree and I couldn't resist the temptation to see if the old "A 50mm 1.7" could find something special to capture.

I love the vivid colors... very nice. The shot also made me think that it's a big tree too.

The Pentax A 50mm 1.7 seems to give me vivid results, a kind of Kodachrome look which I like. The tree is a 7 footer with home made decorations that were made over the the years when our children where young and in their creative modes. Thanks for your comments.

Season greetings.
