Thursday Threesome
Onesome: Lights!- What do you think of the trend to light up houses for *every* holiday? It used to be just Christmas and maybe Halloween, but lately the stores have been full of Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day lights. Oh, and Thanksgiving/Autumn and...
I have not seen this "trend" but I think it sounds excessive and tacky. The Christmas lighs are very pretty, but they are up too long each year as it is, and the amount of electricity spent on it, across all families, is too much. Extending it is just silly, if people are doing that; and what's the point, to make the holidays more generic? :P
Twosome: Camera!- What's your preference? Digital or film, black and white or color, portraits, candids, or just whatever catches your eye?
Digital. Much easier to get photos, check them, start over if the result was not what you wanted, etc. I generally take color photos but also like black and white and sepia when they suit the material; flexibility on this is another thing I like about digital photography. I generally do landscape photographs, though not always; I like a good portrait or candid, I just don't tend to take them as often.
Threesome: Action!- Do you have a favorite sport? Do you follow the local high school or college team, trek to the kids' games each weekend or are you all about the pros?
Nope. I used to like watching figure skating and I suppose I still would except it is not worth the time it uses up. Many sports bore or outright annoy me; I'm glad people enjoy them, but I don't.
