We still have our Christmas tree up! Look at those flawless bokeh circles produced by the 85mm 1.8 on the 5D Mark II. Lovely!
At the traditional Vienna Magic of Advent, the Rathausplatz becomes a shining fairytale land. The 150 or so sales stands offer Christmas gifts, Christmas tree decorations, sweets and warming drinks. The trees of the surrounding City Hall park are festively decorated and radiate in a sea of lights. There are lots of offers here for children in particular.
Not far away is the Christmas village on Maria-Theresien-Platz, situated between the Museum of Fine Arts and the Natural History Museum. 70 stands offering traditional handicrafts and original gift ideas are set up here during Advent. The romantic Christmas village in the Old AKH is also a popular meeting point during the run-up to Christmas, especially for the younger crowd. There are also two areas for playing “ice stock sport”, an Alpine game similar to curling, right in the Christmas village.
The Old Viennese Christmas Market on Freyung in the city center is committed to tradition. A Christmas market was held here as early as 1772; today, it is a place to buy handicrafts, glass decorations, traditional cribs and ceramics. Festive Advent music can be heard on the square from 16:00. Top-quality handicrafts can also be purchased a couple of steps further along at the Am Hof Advent Market.
The cultural and Christmas market in front of Schönbrunn Palace offers romance in front of an imperial backdrop, and is converted into a New Year's market after Christmas. The atmospheric market offers traditional handicrafts, hand-made Christmas decorations, Christmas concerts and an extensive children's program, including Christmas workshop. The Christmas Village at Belvedere Palace enjoys an impressive baroque background. The unique palace gardens provide an ideal site for a tranquil Christmas market.
Children in particular also really appreciate the Christmas Market on Karlsplatz. In addition to an extensive children’s program, the market is above all noted for handicrafts. There are also numerous stalls full of artisans’ wares in the idyllic tiny alleyways at the Christmas Market on Spittelberg and numerous other vendors with unique culinary gift ideas.
Entertainment is the word at the winter market on Riesenradplatz. There are children's adventure rides, musical live acts and a humorous show program here until 6 January. The Christmas market at Stephansplatz focusses on contemplation and tradition, with 26 booths offering high-quality products from Austria.
An Imperial and Royal Christmas Market will be held on Michaelerplatz this year for the first time. Austrian producers, some of whom are descendants of former Imperial and Royal Court Suppliers, will offer their high-quality goods in radiantly white market booths.

we passed this house and I had to take a shot (out of the car window and in the rain).
I'm going to use it for my 113 pictures in 2013 project, number 22 "exuberance or joy" as the residents must just love Christmas! The house next door was also decorated but not as OTT as this one

Christmas is truly a great holiday, Birthday of Juses Christ, the only Savior and the only way to God. I know this is not fashinable to say these things nowadays in the era of atheism or materialism or whatever else people believe in with all their hearts and say it's not a belief. Anyway I remain eligible for expressing my beliefs and not even trying to offend anybody. Culinarium masterpieces have always been an essential part of any important celebration, and so they are part of a wonderful atmosphere of Christmas Eve.
Day 331 of 365 - Officially Christmas Time
Nicer Large on Black
Well with Thanksgiving over (in the US) in the Golden household we have begun our Christmas season in full :). The tree went up tonight. This is undoubtedly not the only Christmas shot you will see from me as my 365 comes to a close :P.
Christmas ornaments are decorations (usually made of glass, metal, wood or ceramics) that are used to festoon a Christmas tree.
Christmas will be here before we know it. AnnAria have put together a great bundle with so many options.
It is called "Holiday Trimmings."

Reliving Christmas past, as I didn't post these on Flickr at the time. Galveston's (and much of South Texas') first white Christmas.
The snow didn't stick around long. The temp. didn't get below freezing so most of the snow started melting once it hit the ground....fortunately it was falling so heavily that nice amounts were able to accumulate.
