Default What did Santa bring you?

Being together with my family on Christmas Eve, being safe at home (Canada is totally covered in snow) seeing their faces to open up their gifts, its a highlight for me.
I so love it. Did not expect the gifts I got: a Wacom Bamboo tablet and a MB-D80 battery grip! I cannot wait to play with these new toys! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas everyone!

I got an Airport Extreme, so now I can hook up my printers and external drives via the USB hub and have them wireless. Where that's really handy is with the photos I store on the external drive (which means I can access them all in lightroom without messing with the wires ) No photo gear this year.

Santa was very good to me, I got 2 studio lights and a backdrop set up with 2 backgrounds. Hubby really spoilt me this year.

Santa got me the Canon ST ET Transmitter. Now I can shoot with both of my flashes off camera.

Rachelyou I have the 450D. I love it. There is actually a Digital Rebel XSI/450D for Dummies by Julie Adair King. It really helped me out.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Nothing yet, got a sweatshirt and some dough at a party last night, still waiting for my mom to get up so we can open stuff. She's been hinting that she got me a SDHC and an external harddrive.

Just one of those would send me through the roof, so I remain hopeful

and I got the new family perpetual christmas gift. which is a large grandiose racing trophy (come from a racing family, they have more trophies than shelf space)
