Chanukah Photo Gallery
Chanukah starts next week, and I wonder if I will have the energy to take new photos. I’ve taken so many Chanukah photos already. Any suggestions on a new twist? Which Chanukah photo is your favorite?

This gallery is built with the NextGen gallery plugin for WordPress – I’ve been using this for a client, so I thought it would be fun to install the plugin on my own blog and show off some photos. It might make doing JPiX (Jewish Photo Blogger’s Carnival) a lot easier, too. Hm.
Just discovered one tiny technical problem with the NextGen Gallery – if I want to pin a photo (I just joined Pinterest), I have to put one directly into the post and not only use the gallery. So here’s one:
Update on July 2013: Having problems with the new version of NextGen Gallery. May go back to Reverted to the old version. Oh, well, it was nice while it lasted.
Update on August 9, 2013: updated to NextGen Gallery 2.0.7 – so far, it works.
Update in December 2014: Version 2.0.66.33 – still works.
Update March 2018: Version 2.2.54 – still works!

This is a clever way of showing photo! I like the one with the three full cups and the burning wicks.

Love that gallery plug in. Makes me ALMOST want to switch over to WordPress. :)

I can't decide which is my favorite--I really love the one with the candles against the blue background and the one with the blue candle tilting over as it burns to the bottom. But your daughter really steals the show with her expressions in the pictures she is in.

I can't choose a favorite.
No doubt as Chanuka progresses, you'll find some scenes you must shoot. Can't wait to see them.

I started doing some drawing of dreidels. Maybe they will show up on my blog.

I like that album and of course my favorite photos are the ones with the children....

It's hard to pick a favorite but I think mine would have to be the one from the collage that you put at the end of the post. Something about the bending candle with only the lights from the others showing appeals to me a great deal. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Chanukah.

Hi Leora, I like the one with all the hannukiahs on the table - A feast of lights! But I also like the droopy blue candle, it says "I'm tired, won't someone please blow me out so I can lie down"
