PhotoFeed Contest - Black & White Photography Round 149: Christmas Eve [ENG/ESP]
“Gifts of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly merry Christmas.”
Peg Bracken

Christmas Eve
In Venezuela, Christmas is usually celebrated with a dinner on the night of the 24th, where family, friends, and even neighbors gather and enjoy traditional dishes typical of this time of year.
Last night, while we were waiting for dinner, I caught my mother and brother-in-law distracted, checking social media on their phones, so I took the opportunity to take a picture of them.
As I have described in previous posts, I process the original photographs using the editing tools offered in their free versions by the applications Picsart and Snapseed.
Víspera de Navidad
En Venezuela, la Navidad se acostumbra celebrar con una cena la noche del 24, donde la familia, amigos y hasta vecinos se reúnen y disfrutan de los platos tradicionales propios de estas fechas.
Anoche mientras nos encontrabamos esperando el momento de la cena, sorprendí a mi madre y a mi cuñado distraidos revisando las redes sociales en el teléfono, situación que aproveché para fotografiarlos.
Como he descrito en posts anteriores, las fotografías originales las proceso haciendo uso de las herramientas de edición que ofrecen en sus versiones gratuitas las aplicaciones Picsart y Snapseed.

All the Photos are of my Authorship, as well as the Edition of the same ones.
This is my entry for the PhotoFeed Black & White Photography Contest. This is an initiative of @photofeed

Beautiful people, smiles, photos!
Merry Christmas Manuel!
For us in Greece, Manuel (my brother's name is also same, but called Manos here) it is celebrated as name day!
I've always wanted to visit Greece; it's on my list of places to see.
Thank you, and best wishes to you and your brother Manos! 😃
