During this very special time of year, I want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from my family to yours. I hope you are enjoying this season with the people you love, and that you are finding joy in every moment.
And for all of us who end up being the official photographers in the family, have fun capturing the smiles and memories that really matter.
As the prophet Isaiah wrote, "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace".
Isaiah 9:6
Best wishes, Fred

Fred,
Thanks for the Christmas wishes and the Isaiah quote that speaks to the real reason for all the celebration. The image you posted is just magical and perfect for this time of year! It is especially appealing to those of us in Texas who are running the A/C full blast right now.
I really want you to know that in my book, this site is far and away the best photographic site around in terms of viewing and sharing what we are so passionate about.
Merry Christmas to you and your family, and prayers for a very blessed and prosperous 2026!
Merry Christmas to Fred and the family, and thank you for all the energy, efforts and work you’ve provided to all of us members who appreciate what you’ve created here for us.
Give all your family our appreciation for allowing all the photo sessions you’ve put them through and the time you’ve spent on this endeavor.
Thank you Fred for your holiday wishes, and for the inspiration of this scripture and your beautiful Yosemite image. My hope is that all would experience the Love, Grace, and Peace that surpasses all understanding.
