Getting in the Holiday Spirit

Getting in the Holiday Spirit
Saturday Self-Challenge: 'Rule of Thirds' Composition (Suggested by Diederik)

This week I began Christmas decorating by putting up my aluminum tree with vintage glass Polish ornaments. The tree is from my childhood.

A very Merry Christmas to all my ipernity friends and may the New Year bring you blessing and joy!

Beautiful and all the nicer for the memories.

I am probably not going to Flickr. I just can't stand their interface. I'm trying 23hq but am not greatly impressed. May end up going nowhere.

Valfal club has replied to RHH club
Thank you so much, Ron. I am sorry to hear that you don't like Flickr; it isn't my favorite place in relation to ipernity, either, but it is the best solution for me right now. I hope you find the best replacement for your needs, too.

Oh, what a great image, Val! Those bulbs remind me of childhood Christmases when we would decorate the tree and Mom would play her Bing Crosby Christmas album. Thanks for the stroll down memory lane!
