Wednesday’s Photo
A Selfie in a Christmas Ornament
On the weekend, my wife and I went into the snowy and chilly outdoors and located a beautiful fir tree under the power lines. Fortunately, the snow was not too deep to walk the 50 metres from the road. With a small hand saw, I had the tree cut in no time while Biene cheered me on. Yesterday, I brought the Christmas tree into our living room and decorated it with ornaments and lights. Later on, when the day was fading into darkness, I took a few pictures. One photo shows a shiny ornament, where later on to my great surprise. I discovered myself in its reflection.



It’s beautiful, Peter — and what fun to be able to select and cut your own tree, rather than searching for one in an overcroded tree lot with already too-dry trees. It looks quite festive; I hope all of your season is equally so!

Früher haben wir das auch öfter gemacht , den Weihnachtsbaum selbst im Wald zu besorgen. Jetzt gibt es so viele Christbaumhändler, dass sich das nicht mehr lohnt. Liebe Grüße, eine schöne Adventszeit und viel Vorfreude auf Weihnachten. Wolfgang

Wow, that’s a feisty tree!
It is so funny sometimes, what one finds on photos later on, isn’t it? You could have said you intended it, pure genius! 😉 🙂

I hope the selfie will persist so you can deploy it when you decorate your next tree in 2023.

Looks beautiful. And, as I have probably said earlier, admire your ability and willingness to set yourself up independently; like cutting the tree. Merry Christmas!
