It's all about new live, new hope and self reflection.
In our living room, it's Christmas too.
So I couldn't resist taking some photos.
This is an Orton experiment on a photo of our Christmas stable.

IPhone 6+ and processed with Snapseed, TouchRetouch, Instaflash Pro. I saw the footsteps in the sand, and then saw the man sitting off by himself. It definitely seemed like a moment of alone time. I turned around and went the other way.
The thing about photography is that the viewer is always receiving a bit of the photographer in the photo. Sometimes covertly. Other times overtly. For example, I'm completely absorbed in the exhibit of artist Ellsworth Kelly at the St. Louis Art Museum–in his panoramic frame, delineated panels, and merging colors that starts with yellow and ends in yellow–but then there is my reflection in the very thing I'm absorbed in.
I'm appreciating and photographing the artwork of:
Artist: Ellsworth Kelly (American, 1923-2015)
Title: Spectrum II (1966-1967)
Material: Oil on canvas
Venue: St. Louis Art Museum
Excerpt from brainproject.ca:
We have all been raised to self-reflect and consider who we are, what we want and where we are going. Our view of ourselves is frequently based on how we were raised, educated and treated as children. As we age, we see ourselves further reflected in our families, friends and more generally in how successfully we have navigated employment and financial stability. We often subscribe to the media’s rigid, impenetrable polished ideals that are framed in clear-cut definitions of identity and beauty. “Self Reflection” visually depicts these tendencies while gently reminding us of how aging and disease can also provide new self-images. Though clouded, our self-portraits can also become softer and more deeply beautiful.

I'd seen the Central library on TV and I was so glad I got to visit it in person. It's a magnificent architechtural structure. If I lived within walking distance (and owned my own laptop), I could see myself spending hours and hours in there.

You might say. "Hey, you've already posted a picture of Hypsiboas punctatus! Why, in the endless diversity that is #Sanilodge are you giving us the same old $h*t!?!"
To which I first respond, "Why you ungrateful little $^#$%#"
Then after a moment's self-reflection and brutal honestly I come to the epiphany... I need the likes, the shares. The dopamine rush of your support and adulation, these lowly cockroach posts just aren't doing it for me!
This also just so happens to illustrate the transition in time from green to red in a single individual. But you know, mostly the star, fandom thing.

there is something in this photograph that speaks of cycles and of healing -- something that feels "right" to me today. i took this originally last march.

Better pic coming in a second. You can see my mom & me in the mirror in the back.
The inside looked like a time warp! A total time warp! zomg, I wanted in really bad.. hehe..
EDIT: I did some more research and found out this place closed in 1992.
I took over 150 pictures in Cumberland today, so I figure it'll take me a while to upload them all.
