Yes, I accidentially skipped the third Advent Sunday, but now it’s already the 4th and that means it’s Christmas in less than a week! So here’s this year’s Bokeh Christmas tree :-).

I almost forgot to post the weekly Christmas tree today – this is an improved photo I took yesterday with a tripod and to my surprise I actually got a little bit of starbursts from the lights!

I was absolutely determined to get a Christmas tree this year, especially after all what happened this year – and I got one in time for the first of Advent. I got it on Friday, put it up on Saturday and finished decorating it this afternoon, even without freezing because it was surprisingly warm for a change.

It is still sort of Christmas here in Germany, because the 25th and 26th are both holidays here. This is just a bit of fun with the seasonal decoration, I took this in case I ran out of photos :-).

Here’s our other Christmas Tree, a little potted one on the downstairs balcony!

Merry Christmas, everyone! This is actually from December 17 because it’s so windy today that it’s impossible to take a good photo of the tree right now. And it’s really warm – almost 14°C/57°F! I hope everyone has a nice holiday – here in Germany, presents are actually given on the evening of the 24th, so Christmas actually begins today for us and December 25 and 26 are both holidays.

We’ve been getting our Christmas trees at this corner for over twenty years!

Just a re-worked smartphone shot I took when we got our Christmas tree :-).

Only a couple of days until Christmas! For the fourth Advent Sunday, here’s
this year’s tree with a bit more natural colour timing and a nice blue sky.

Sorry, could not resist the title! This is what happens when you try to take christmassy
photos and the tree is shaking in the wind. I’ll try again when it’s less stormy! :-).
