Merry Christmas to you all !! Hope its a safe and wonderful time with loved ones...

While many of you will be all warm and cozy in front of a fire or playing in the snow, Here in Australia it will be hot so most of my Christmas days are spent on the beach recovering from a food coma..lol..and swishing flies away!!!, swimming in the deep blue waters...

I dream of having a White Christmas... Christmas all over the world can be so different.

I paid a visit to the Flying Fox colony in Melbourne's Yarra Bend last week. The residents were, as usual, cheerfully laud and... smelly ;-)

Challenge 148.0

Still experimenting with different painterly styles.

This one was inspired by a style that Cleide creates ( its not the same but as close as I could achieve).....this dreamy flowing surreal style fascinated me and after many attempts I've managed to get something similar (I think)

Thanks"Cleide" for both the inspiration and your on going support,so very much appreciated...!

(Thank you for your wonderful comments,

awards,invites and faves...

all are very much appreciated....!)

(large is cool)

For my album “Misc”. Take a look !

Whilst playing around with my lensball and candle one evening I noticed the upside down refraction ( thanks David for correction:) plus a separate reflection of a tealight in a bowl of water. So here's to all of us this Sunday at the start of a new year!

Looking down on a desert oak(?) as its met by first light from our early morning balloon flight out of Alice Springs.
