I got the Nikon SB 600. ; What a difference it can make. ; For 3 years I never took many pictures inside due to the pop up flash not being so great. ;
You have to see it sometime! ; Sadly, that is only half of the gifts, the other tree (our Disney one) is to the left of the tv, out of the picture. ; We really enjoy Christmas and always overspend!
Unlike certain Scrooge-like people (ahem, Scott), watching A Christmas Story is definitely a Christmas tradition for me. ; It makes me want to dig out and reread the books upon which the movie is based, In ; God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash and to a lesser extent ; Ferrari ; In The Bedroom. ; I also find it interesting that, although the story takes place in northwest Indiana, you can see Toronto streetcars in the background of the fight scene.
Anyway, excellent job of capturing the true spirit of Christmas.

Isn't the house it was filmed in located in Cincinnati? ; Obviously everything else could be filmed elsewhere.

It's a Major Award!
Shucks, I wouldn't know that. It looks like a lamp.
What is a lamp, you nincompoop? It's a Major Award. I won it!
Damn, hell, you say won it?
Yeah, mind power, Swede; mind power.

With as much dignity as he could muster, the Old Man gathered up the sad remains of his shattered major award. Later that night, alone in the backyard, he buried it next to the garage. Now I could never be sure, but I thought that I heard the sound of "Taps" being played, gently.

I remember seeing A Christmas Story in the theater when it originally came out. ; It quickly became my dad's favorite Christmas movie and we had it on video tape for years and watched it ever year over and over.
When the movie came out, many of my peers would call me Ralphie because they claimed I looked just like the actor, Peter Billingsley. ; But that was better than when they called me Messy Marvin which was a character the same actor played on TV prior to that for Hershey's Chocolate Syrup commercials

Okay...found it. ; This post has all my links to the flash articles using a Nikon SB-600: Flash is Our Friend
Oh, and don't forget, you have the Nikon Creative Lighting System (CLS) built in to your camera and this speedlight. ;

I drive my family nuts with this movie around the holidays. If it were up to me, the tv would be on the whole time the marathon was showing it.
The exterior scenes were shot in Cleveland. The store window and parade were in downtown. When I was growing up, we went downtown Christmas shopping, and the opening scene display window was a must see. Also, the exteriors of the house (interiors were on a set) were also shot in Cleveland. In fact, the house is on the same street as my parents' house, although it's discontinuous. The industrial area just barely visible in their backyard over the fence interrupts the street. The house has also been bought and restored to it's movie state, interior and exterior.
