ꒌ НАЛИЧЈЕ ПОСТ-ИНДУСТРИЈСКОГ друштва —Тачан моменат заласка сунца (које је заклоњено зградом са леве стране овог кадра), мразно ветровито вече пред Божић Јелинима и Сиријцима.
► █░▓ CHRISTMAS EVE day-to-night border line. The very moment of astronomical sunset. The Sun was blocked by the nearby shipyard. It was the first clear sunset this winter here (after December solstice launch last Sunday afternoon). It took place at 231°, which is the southernmost place on the horizon in the whole year's season cycle. Just to the left beyond this frame.
This is a strange capture, a compound of extremely busy lower half and the negative space in the upper half. A mayhem. This might work better in total monochrome. There is too much to name everything. Lower left the shipyard offices. To the right behind the trees a narrow strip of Avelingen, the Boven Merwede right riverbank. Behind the river: De Werken shipyards. Further behind: De Biesbosch. In the background De Dordtse Biesbosch.
► The symbolism of this borderline industrial landscape may be obvious. The conclusion of Advent, the Christmas Eve is telling you: look at the world on the ground! It's one big mess, or made mess, skyline pollution, waterline pollution, wiring, heavy machinery dissecting the Earth, a conundrum of human attempts to reach happiness through pandemonium of tumultuous undertakings and enterprises. Most of which are destructive, or at best ludicrous. But not far from it — just a little higher — there is peace and calm, invariable space of original perfection, the gentle clear skies, the vestibule of Heaven. How many of us turn our eyes away from the ground and up into the free areas above?
Lumix G9 / Leica 100-400mm f4.0-6.3 fully zoomed in (800 mm the full-frame equivalent). Underexposed ⅓ of a stop. Handheld with support. Aperture priority f/9 resulting in 1/80 of a sec for ISO fixed at 200. AWB, sooc jpeg edited in Photos 10.0. Uncompressed, slightly cropped from 4:3 format, + Flickr B&W/'Sepia' filter (~30%). It was unattainable to get rid of the excessive orange sky colour without deteriorating the rest.

Christmas morning Breakfast Waffle Stout
"Amundsen Christmas Morning Breakfast Waffle Stout, from Gulating Ølutsalg, Stavanger. ABV is 4.7%. Very dark brown colour, nearly black. Small off-white to beige head. Aroma of lightly roasted malts, blueberry jam and waffles. Flavour with the same elements as the aroma, not too sweet" A real STOUT should be more heavy, this is waterly. Not THE BEST Christmas-beer. .
We often like to have a tree in our dining room, but as there isn't much room we usually choose our slim tree.
I really like this view from the kitchen, with the reflection of the lights on the TV screen. This room has a multicoloured look, but leaning towards purples, turquoises, yellows, etc.
Merry Christmas to all my Flickr Friends!
Buon Natale a tutti i miei amici di Flickr!

Artificial tree we have been using for about 10 years. It is in the room where the wood burning stove is so a real tree wouldnt last there.
We used to have a real tree each year in parallel in the cooler front hall but these days one tree feels more than enough. Maybe as grandchildren get older and the beholders preferences change, more than one tree might start to feel appropriate again.

One of the stalls at the traditional Christmas market in Liverpool. Taken in the dark and rain when I should have been Christmas shopping.
An edit of a Portrait taken in South America on my first trip ten years ago. A Man collects money for his family with his Christmas themed Dog in Downtown Lima, Peru, South America.
I haven't been out for photos since my hip replacement surgery early this month, but I wanted to stop by to wish a warm holiday season to all, and a very Merry Christmas to those who are celebrating this week. This shot was taken a couple of years ago in the historic village of Long Grove, Illinois.
I am definitely on the mend following the surgery. I'm walking well without a cane now, and continuing my post operative exercises in a vigorous fashion. I'll likely be off and on Flickr for a while yet during the holiday season, but I'm planning to be back on a more routine basis again soon.
