Happy New Year – 2019!

Well here we are in 2019. If you were in New York for the celebrations, then you got wet and the fireworks were a bust this year.

Here in , I had a low-key celebration with my family. There were plenty of fireworks in the neighborhood, but mostly a cacophony of sound rather than a display of light and color.

Watching my website stats last night, my most popular post was How to Photograph Fireworks without a tripod.

Since I didn't go out shooting the New Year celebrations, I've decided to post two (handheld) shots from Disney World a few years back. Taken with an EOS 5D, but reprocessed using Lightroom, Topaz Studio, and Photoshop, they still hold up for me.

To all my readers, I wish you a happy and prosperous new year full of wonderful experiences.
