From the entire Peterson Family…Merry Christmas!

Sharon & I along with the dogs went for a walk this afternoon to see the new snow on Mammoth Mtn. And than the light started to dance so up we went.

And while I was loaded for photographing wildlife, none was around but darn if the light just didn’t keep kissing the mtn side. I just couldn’t ignore it. So up we continued.

It was just a fine afternoon to take the dogs (or they took us) for a walk.

To make the most of the warm glow of the light, I switched to Vivid Picture Control. Since I’ve added this to My Menu in the D3, it’s real easy to switch to it when desired. At this point, I’m still playing with Vivid to see when it does and doesn’t work for my images.

We have been receiving many a phone call asking if WRP has gift certificates. You can’t get them off our webstore, but you can call our office and talk with Sharon. You can get a “gift certificate” for just about anything we offer from DLWS, Base Camp, gallery print or private tutoring. And for xmas, we send out an autographed “gallery print” gift card as your gift certificate. Give us a call if we can be of service.

Sign me up for Moose News! Those of you who are “old” Moose News readers remember when it use to be a simple email I sent out. Then come modern times and the blog version of Moose News and RRS Feeds to keep up you up to date with new postings. Then came devices like the iPhone where you can easily receive emails on the road, easier than checking RRS Feeds. So my brilliant webmistress (who is responsible for our new cool D3 site) just found and added to the blog email subscriber. You click on it, type in your email address (which goes no further) and you’ll receive an email notification when the blog is updated. And right now, you can do it right here on this blog posting!

Our boys are home from college for the holiday weekend and of course, the notebooks are out and the new things they’ve discovered are being shared. Now the majority of the time, it’s stuff that, well, only college kids would be into (like YouTube videos) but than they told me about this. It’s called Stumbleupon which is a website that helps you stumble upon other websites. You can just let it randomly stumble upon sites or tell it something specific like photography or photoshop or biology and than it stumbles on just those kinds of sites. It’s not only fun, but you can find some really cool things out on the www that you otherwise would probably never stumble upon. So, while you’re playing couch potato this weekend with all the games on, give it a whirl!

With so much to be thankful for, everyone at WRP wishes you

all a great Turkey Day!
