The family has developed a new "kitschy" gift exchange that has grown beyond the usual exchange. We set up a name draw on line, set a low allowed budget, and the gift receiver must proudly display (a chance to insert humor) the gift for one year. I found some advertising ephemera that may fit the bill, but along the way things caught my eye. Again the D850 with Nikkor 50mm f1.2 ais and the tc-16a
Just something about the color of this - through a glass case

Here are a few monochromes to keep things rolling. They were taken with my D800E at Big Qualicum River, with help from, respectively, the 105 f/2.8 micro Ai-s and TC-16A (which inexplicably register together in the exif data as a 70-210 zoom at 145mm ), the 105 f/1.8 Ai-s , and the 50 f/1.4 SC.

Don't see too many Yaks in our part of the world. I understand they are very docile, which is a good thing considering the horns. 50-135mm f3.5 ais.

Let's see if we can get to the next page tonight. One from the 35mm f2.0 O. Not the sunniest day, flip side was the lowish light allowed the LED lighting to show up nicely in this cloudy morning shot.
Very nice Ray. The early morning light does allow the artificial lights to pop a bit. Looks like the tower of the cable stay bridge has some colorful lighting?

Yes, programmable large LED panel lighting to make things interesting. It's a pity (but a very reasonable accommodation) that the older lift bridge needed to be left in place to accommodate local traffic, preventing a clean profile look for the cable stay when viewed full on without some foreground shielding like this old lake freighter.
A couple of takes on the hall with guest amenities and food and beverage offerings at the park. 35mm f2.0 O.

Ray, this looks like a great area to take images. The first in your most recent post shows some nice construction detailing and material use. I especially like the board formed concrete patterning. Touring the freighter would be fun.
