Lol, those of you who know me, know that I love photographing owls. Needless to say, my daughter, with her brilliant ability to choose gifts that are exactly right for each person, found this perfect little wooden Christmas tree ornament for me and gave it to me on 21st December, when we had our Christmas get-together, spent SE of the city with our cameras. The red felt background shows through all the cut-out holes, and I added a clipart candy cane. I hope everyone who celebrates Christmas is having, or has had, a lovely day. Thanks to the freshly fallen snow yesterday, we have a white Christmas, unlike last Christmas.. The sun is shining, the sky is blue, and the temperature is -18C (windchill -24C). Brrrr! For many people, Christmas is a very difficult time, for various reasons. My thoughts are with them and, as always, with those who for one reason or another will spend Christmas alone. To those of you who don't celebrate Christmas, I hope you have a happy day, anyway. Wishing you all a HAPPY CHRISTMAS and all the very best in the New Year! If you will be on the road, please don't drink and drive!

Merry Christmas!

I was playing around on my computer last night and somehow ended up with this 'drawing' and decided there was something about it that I liked - and then I couldn't decide whether to post the red version or this one. Ended up posting both. I hope everyone who celebrates Christmas is having, or has had, a lovely day.

Christmas in the park

Hope that all of you who celebrate Christmas are enjoying all your preparations. Less than two weeks now, so you'd better get busy : ) On a long, cold morning's walk in the park yesterday, we came across a tree that had been decorated with coloured baubles and ornaments. Loved the blue of this bauble and the reflection of the park - couldn't figure a way to exclude myself, LOL, so there I am, wearing T-shirt, sweater, fleece jacket, my bulky winter jacket, hat, hood, long-johns, jeans, two pairs of gloves, two pairs of socks and of course, my winter boots (plus ice-grabbers)! And it was only -12C!!! It's snowing again today - the beautiful, light, fluffy kind where you can see all the individual snowflakes. Light is so poor, so no use to try and take photos. Thank you to the person who spent time adding a little colour to the white landscape: ) I hope the birds enjoy it as much as I did.
