Attempt 262
Well, I've been trying to get the perfect shot for over a week now. Am totally sick of spending each evening with another pile of under-exposed, out of focus or blurred images. I've set fire to both a cotton sheet and a sheepskin rug. Spent a fortune on powering a Kilowatt of borrowed lighting, let off 28 indoor fireworks and gone to bed more than once with a headache wondering why I'm bothering. But here it is, the best of 293 attempts. 'The making of...' to follow.
Clear those chimneys Santa's coming!

Thanks, lots and lots of lighting but no flash, and then gradually increasing the exposure time before it got too blurred.

Absolutely Great Shot! All the details you paid attention for match perfectly together - background, the snowy hills, the dynamic… I think I even can see Santa’s joy on his face during his high-flight..or high-lift! You should be honored properly for your work…
