In 2005 and after 31 years in the brewing industry I chose "Freedom 55" and retired early. This allowed me to follow my passion of scuba diving and travel. I moved out to Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada for 3 years and became a professional scuba instructer.  Shortly after returning from New Zealand in the fall of 2011, I have been having to deal with a couple of non diving related medical issues which has forced me to hang up the mask and fins for a spell. This should give me more time for taking pictures...lol.

"Most people can look back over the years and identify a time and place at which their lives changed significantly. Whether by accident or design, these are the moments when, because of a readiness within us and a collaboration with events occurring around us, we are forced to seriously reappraise ourselves and the conditions under which we live and to make certain choices that will affect the rest of our lives."

The Santa Claus is not necessarily reassuring!

Wonderful capture! :) I never could figure out why some kids are afriad of Santa. Maybe they think the eleves are really little kids Santa stole and took to the North Pole as slaves to work in his toy factory. ;D Ho ho ho!

This is wonderful! Both adorable and deeply funny. Their expressions are priceless. I wonder how many times a day, a Santa is greeted with such a look. Your son's amused expression is perfect too. Excellent capture! Wonderful composition and light. You have very cute granddaughters.

Aww, it is terrifying for small kids, isn't it? I never wanted to do it either, now Santa wouldn't want me to! Great capture of the hesitant girls.

Luckily they have father's safe arms around them. If I was little I would react in the same way. Maybe they will dare next year!
