Glowing Red

 

1998: Birds

Its that time of the year, enter the robin

1965: Songbirds

or maybe a bullfinch

and a rock thrush.  I wonder where they live?

2011: The Happiness Tree

In a Happiness Tree of course.

1973: Copernicus

For more happiness look to the skies and December's colourful Geminid shooting stars.

Let It Snow

 See It On A Postcard's Thursday Postcard Hunt is looking out for snow

Japanese artists are fond of snowy scenes and here the card shows a detail of a  Utagawa Kunisada woodcut showing 'Kabuki actors on a bridge in winter' (1854).

Makrinitsa,Thessaly,Greece

The village of Makrinitsa is built on the slopes Mount Pelion above the port city of Velos so there will be great views of Volos and the Pagasetic Gulf from here.  As can be imagined the area is a popular skiing destination. A beautiful area of Greece in both winter and summer

so which would you choose?
