Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful. ~Norman Vincent Peale
While looking back at images from a wonderful trip at Christmas to old Quebec City a few years ago, I found this sentimental image that brings back great memories.
Christmas Eve 2018 wasn't a white Christmas, but instead had crystal clear, sunny blue skies. As the sun approached sunset (about 3:45 pm at that time of year), I was able to capture the contrasting warm sunlight with the cool blue sky, and combine it with some attractive light and shade through this woodland scene.

I thought I'd do something special with typical Christmas colors and strong color contrasts.
There are still milk stains on my camera and tripod (it was quite a mess in my bathroom) and, yes, it did require 80 takes to get one suitable photo.

Visit the city of Citta della Pieve in the Italian region of Umbria.
Find the Via Vannucci. Walk through a small door straight from the street and you are faced with a masterpiece by Il Perugino , nickname of Pietro Vannucci (1446 – 1523), who was born in Citta della Pieve. In this little chapel of the brotherhood S. Maria dei Bianchi you will see a marvelous Perugino: the beautiful 1504 fresco The Adoration of the Magi.
This is our thirty-third Christmas in our house ! We’ve always had a “ real tree”.
Post start of “real tree” below….

This Poinsettia is a Euphorbia pulcherrima.
The ‘flower’ is in the centre.
The plant's association with Christmas began in 16th century Mexico, where legend tells of a young girl who was too poor to provide a gift for the celebration of Jesus' birthday.
The tale goes that the child was inspired by an angel to gather weeds from the roadside and place them in front of the church altar.
Crimson "blossoms" sprouted from the weeds and became beautiful poinsettias.
From the 17th century, Franciscan friars in Mexico included the plants in their Christmas celebrations.
The star-shaped leaf pattern is said to symbolise the Star of Bethlehem, and the red colour represents the blood sacrifice through the crucifixion of Jesus...
Where I come from, we call this a 'Christmas Star'
There is a common misconception that the poinsettia is highly toxic.
This is not true; it is mildly irritating to the skin or stomach and may sometimes cause diarrhoea and vomiting if eaten.
As with all Euphorbias, they bruise easily and give off a white 'milk' when broken, so those sensitive to latex may suffer an allergic reaction.
I wish you all the very best, and thank you for all your kind words, time, comments and faves. M, (*_*)
