Happy Holidays to you all!
I do not believe my wife reads this blog. Nevertheless, I'm sure that somewhere between the basement (where I photograph my figures) and the upstairs study (where I post to the blog) I must have mentioned, in passing, once or twice, how much I despise her digital camera. And so this year for Christmas she gave me a Nikon CoolPix P5100. Within 30 minutes of unwrapping the gift I was snapping these photos of the latest figures. These are the first two pictures I took.

No swearing. No wasted shots. No effort. Once I learn to use the camera I may actually be able to take pictures without putting myself into a blue funk for the rest of the day.
