Winter Solstice 2014
The first day of Winter, but the days are getting longer again. Vancouver celebrates Winter Solstice every year with lantern processions and song, theatre and dance in several of our Community Centres.
as every year I like to post an image on this special day - and I want to say thank you to all who look at my photos and to all who leave their comments - without you I would not be here !!!

This photo is way cool. I love the colors, light and soft focus. I also like the dynamics created by the tilt of the main puppet.Jim

Die Meteorologen behaupten ja, daß der Winter schon am 1. Dezember begonnen hat. Ein schöner Brauch ist es bei Euch, auf diese Weise den Winter zu begrüßen.lg. Günter

Ich kann es kaum erwarten...mir fehlt die Sonne in diesen langen Nächten auch.
Es ist durchaus ein Grund zum feiern, wenn die Lichttage wieder länger werden.
Klasse deine Fotos zum Thema +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

what a dynamic theatrical little scene you captured here! what outlandish creatures? ignorant me sees a character with a clown's head, wings for a collar and snake arms – a blend of western and first-nation art?? – literally sticking his smiling head out my computer screen, as though embracing those upcoming lighter mornings of winter! i coulnd't agree more! ; )) happy winter solstice 2014, adele! hugs, sabine.chantal Montmasson in Ghiroldi 21/12/2014 10:14

Ein schöner Brauch und vor allem auch ein Grund zu feiern, wenn die Tage wieder länger werden. Merkwürdigerweise gibt es bei uns diesen Brauch nicht bzw. vielleicht nicht mehr. Deine Dokumentation über Jahre finde ich sehr interessant.LG Roswitha
