As is often the case at this time of the year, I’m in search of that perfect festive image. But although I’ve captured many images of Christmas lights, Christmas markets and mystical alleys all oozing atmosphere, somehow all the images have been a bit disappointing. This evening I took the usual street photos of illuminated things, and they were OK. But it wasn’t until I was sitting with a warming glass of wine in our favourite piano bar, peering out through the leaded windows that I saw this somewhat abstract image. I realise it won’t be heralded as a milestone in Christmas photography, but somehow it stirs certain festive feelings…. pity there’s no snow. More festive photos are sure to follow.
