LR-11199 - Well normally there's enough Turkey and cold meat to take us through the winter months it would seem, this year we got it right, but my daughter decided to go into production with cookies and mince pies, the boss turned out a couple of huge cakes and to delight us all a friend popped in with another. Caught Skill Bill hoarding the Cookies

The Admirer plus the grumpy controller!

LR-17590-PS-BD - Second shot of the two gentlemen hanging around the traction engines, not sure if they had a purpose or are the driver's. The reason for the inclusion is to express how the media and a few seconds of time can twist a story line, plus I loved how the light brightened up the grumpy controller (see one in comments)
Another from the trip to the historic dockyard at Portsmouth and the Dicken's characters for Dickensian Christmas event, many of those taking part in England and across the globe to celebrate the 200th birthday of Charles Dicken's writer of Great Expectations, David Copperfield, The Mystery of Edwin Drood and many more including A Christmas Carol.

LR-17505-PS-BD - Intentionally included modern day stuff here, strange how the gentleman pick the entrance to the first aid area to smoke a modern day tailored cigarette. Not sure of the mission the lady was on, but it seems important to her.
I believe both were riding some rather excellent old Edwardian bikes and hence the goggles, probably the cigarette was needed if he had been riding the Penny Farthing on the cobbled street, alongside the closeness to the first aid area :)

Grumpy Controller
LR-17591-PS-BD - For anyone who has met with a grumpy Santa or actor lately, this guy although turning a shilling or two, appears to be as happy as a Lark!

Singing for your Super
LR-17518-PS-BD - A shot form the the Dicken's street with added snow (which I have to say fooled me further away) . Hat's off to the performers, really made the day and not sure how they kept warm or perhaps the frozen look was to add to the authenticity of the day :)

Grey coat from .....
LR-17648-PS-BD - Still trying to remove the modern day aspects around these, but the shots that didn't work were in the right context and those close had some modern day item in there :)

Last weekend was a whole bunch of experiments in lighting and people
Forgot to mention they are all manual focus, so pleased with many of the results.

Retail rush
LR-17596-PS-BD - Wandering through the many shots this one was nearly discarded, but then in the second chance saloon got to like in the context of the day. Perhaps I should give up with faces!
