When you are 11 months old, Christmas is a very new experience.  My son's 
family had their Christmas dinner early because of work schedules.  Nathan, 
our youngest great-grandchild, born in January, was wide-eyed and eager to 
take it all in.  Being the youngest of the five cousins present, he was 
determined not to be outdone by the others.

Working with room lighting and my Oly E-1, I had to go to ISO 800 and try to 
catch as little motion as possible.  This image was shot at 1/5th second, so 
it is not razor sharp, but I felt it showed the way a little one sees the 
occasion.

I know that a few thousand dollars invested in the latest FF gear would have 
eased my problems, but I will leave that to others.  I was happy with 9 
keepers out of 35 shots.

Comments and critiques welcomed.
