when vines masquerade as trees...

A great impression of many tall trees. But being a small space, the vines don't invite the possible damage of trees there. Simply stunning.

ghost signs...

Love the vibe from ghost signs...like ancestors ensuring their last words cross time barriers...
Pity about the thumping music accompaniment...

a Christmas street in the snowy lands...

Not a single, 'artificial' Christmas decoration in sight, and yet this street scene seems so Christmasy...
Snow is a wonderful, magical, natural decorator...
Happy Christmas...

furball in the limelight...

Sometimes it is advisable to succumb to an impromptu offer of a little character and attitude to jazz up your planned landscape...
This little furball knows just how to oblige... https://t.co/vOFHABFBk7
