According to my calculations today is indeed the twelfth day of Christmas. But we won’t be putting our Christmas decorations away until tomorrow, January 6th. Tomorrow is Three Kings Day when traditionally we tuck into sweet bread (Three Kings Cake) and hope for the piece with the little plastic king in it enabling the lucky finder to live like a king for the day. I’m sure all this 12 Days and 3 Kings business is explained in depth on the web, so I’ll say no more about it. The project motivated me sufficiently to use my camera a lot during the festive season but I’m not sure whether the resulting images really met my original ideas. I wasn’t after ‘Christmasy’ photos, but upon reflection they could perhaps have been just a little more seasonal. Today’s works simply satisfy this afternoons urge to look at something old….. without gazing at the mirror 😉
