Rudolf is, by far, the most lovd and popular of Santa's reindeer. The song is heard constantly thoughout the holiday season, and he stars in several TV specials...my favorite is the visit to the Island of Misfit Toys, of which I can relate at times. One season, my wife purchased this three foot tall Rudolf metal figure. It plays the famous song, but...its broken, playing the same two lines of that song over and over and over... Although it has become annoying to me, it still presented a pretty cool photographic opportunity.

I walked around it, snapping several photos from different angles and sides. None were what I was looking for. Then it hit me... I grabbed the two step stool from the kitchen and go up high. So, from ceiling, I shot down at this figure. I used my Nikon D60 with 55-200mm VR lens.
