AND THE WINNER IS...

For as long as I can remember the Oscar's was a part of my life.

Mama and I watched it together every year and I continued to do so throughout my life.

Every year there was a mad rush to see as many of the nominees as possible.

This year for Best Picture I did 6 out of 9.  It was easier when it was only 5.

Santa, on the other hand, was clueless of my obsession with movies.

We had a crash course cramming in as many films as we could before the Oscar's.

Santa liked the old films best.  Which made me think,  as a photographer, 

maybe we could have some fun.  I did a lot of head shots early on

and Santa seemed more than willing to my model.

Here we go...
