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!

Christmas Tree Bokeh

I tried my hand at some Christmas tree bokeh shots this year.  I feel like 9 out of every 10 shots looked terrible, but here are a few that turned out fairly nicely.  These are unedited, and were taken with two different Nikon cameras.  Click to enlarge.  Hope you had a great Christmas!
