It opened a few weeks ago, but only now I managed to make a night visit to the Christmas fair in the center of the city.

Cold weather means ice and snow, the colder the more aggressive the ice.

Today I has some business to take care of on the opposite side of the city. Much to my surprise getting out of the subway, the weather was very different from home, almost like winter is supposed to be (only snow on the ground was missing)

We are near Christmas, so it was obvious one of the pictures in my parenting series will have a Christmas theme. Actually my first concept for it was “preparing to set the Xmas tree on fire” but I ducked it to prevent any possible domestic debates.

The cake is pretty much a standard chocolate cake, the decorations make it wintery.

For those who liked my animated snow globe and not only, here is a new interpretation of the scene, this time darker and stormier. Available both as a still image and an animation.

We are bracing for the winter holidays season, so probably a little cinemagraph with a snow globe is appropriate.

Even if some may try to deny that, the winter is here and in full force.

I have again a picture in the “Ger în arșița verii” (Freeze in the summer hot) photo exhibition, happening in the Bucharest city center, on the Bucharest Museum fence. It opened today and will stay open until the end of August.

I still have a garden (long ago used to post more pictures from it, flowers, plants, insects and such) but now live away from it (is for sale, BTW), so such pics are much rarer (and, arguably, I matured a bit as a photographer and that influenced my themes). Today I visited it, and knowing at this time snowdrops should be in full flower, I planned to pick some to give. Unfortunately, event there are a lot of them, my snowdrops are not tall, hard to carry, to offer and keep, so I am afraid for the moment she has to keep the photos and I have to go to the market for real flowers.

“The capital [city] grows green” the sign says. Doesn’t look much like that, I would add.
