What’s Your Preference?

♪It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
Take a look in the five-and-ten, glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
Toys in ev'ry store,
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door. ♪

Merry Christmas! (Even if there are still 23 days left till Christmas)

Well done Canon, thats a lovely simple and very effective picture, pity you didn't record the song and link it as an audio file

If this picture and song doesn't get us all in the mood, nothing will. Great bokeh. Thanks for this. PAUL

Well what a picture captured by you.The reflection appearing on the ball is awesome.

Oh I love it! Funny thing, I always associate a bokeh with christmas. Shame you can't really take yourself out of the reflection.

Me too! Thanks. And yes, I would like to do that.

Why even Perry Como himself would give you a hat's off for your efforts in both the photo and accompanying festive lyrics.

Proof that simple is best. Great shot.
