Got to get focused again!

The death of my father-in-law and Christmas has taken most of my time.  The rest of my time has been trying to recoup from the exhaustion of it all.  My new toy has been fun, but I've learned that you can't take candid shots of people in the portrait or landscape mode, it blurs because of movement!  So I guess I'll be sticking to my Nikon SLRD50 to take my family holiday photos candidly.  It's ok if you're doing an actual portrait and nobody moves, but....well, I'll just use my SLR to do portraits and candid shots.  I did get a few shots of my Christmas tree and the fire in my wood stove that look pretty cool to me.........
