At last, I made a Christmas card this year (2010) :-) (link in the image below) I’ve been on the lookout for a Christmas-themed image, but the snow was either absent, or just falling for hours. A few days later, and a timid sun peeked from behind the clouds as I was passing by these beautiful holy berries, somewhere in north London.
I never quite understood why these berries appear on a lot of Christmas cards… until I found my own. It’s the joy of finding such bright colours on a dull winter day that makes me want to share it with the world :-)
Merry Christmas and a very happy new year to all who read this – best wishes to you and your families and other loved ones

Love the look of these berries so bright against the snow. Shirley
Many thanks for the visit and feedback, I’m very glad you like them. Until I saw these, didn’t really believe that the Christmas cards could be based on reality – but now I made my own from this ‘as is’ photo :-)
