Oscar Day

[Chris Dodkin]

Family and friends piled over for our yearly Oscars party.

Kids arrived first - kicked off with bubble blowing

Then it was time to fill-in the Oscar ballots

Addy was more interested in the pumpkin, left over from Halloween

Ready, steady, go!

More bubble blowing practice

Finally the show starts

And the winner is...

All shots 5D2 and 24mm f1.4 Lens.

Great photos. I really like the last two. My daughter got us up at 6am to watch the Oscars!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Thanks Rob - not sure it was worth a 6am start!

 

[Allan Batchelor]

Ye Rob thats a bit hard core just to watch Oscars. Im up cause start work at half 7

I will the pumpkin and the writing ones just for the sheer concentration and effort on that face

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Definitely not worth getting up at 6am for!

 

[Brian Moore]

Wonderful kid shots as usual, Chris!

 

[Hamish Gill]

Lovely shots Chris, but im genuinely surprised people make this level of effort to watch the oscars!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Maybe it's a California thing as we're close to the action

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Never disappointing results displayed with that beast of a lens!!

Just realised I hadn't commented yet on these Chris but I had been admiring them. Nice idea to have day focused on the event - I can imagine it is a great family tradition. And a really super set of images of the day. Love the candid shots of the kids. The narrow field of focus really emphasises the concentration I think.

These are lovely, Chris!
Must admit, when i read the title and started reading the thread I was expecting to see photos of a boy named Oscar and his friends at his birthdayparty
