Daytime Christmas Tree Shots

Using a different camera this time (a Nikon D3200 with the standard 18-55mm lens), I took some daytime shots of our tree.  I think these came out much better than the ones in my previous post ("Christmas Tree Bokeh").  Thanks to three factors: the equipment, the lighting and the extra practice.  The last two in this set are pictures of a purple hyacinth we just purchased.  Click any of the photos to enlarge.  Enjoy!
