The Start of Christmas

As today is the first Sunday in Advent I thought I'd post a Christmas picture – this one being from Trafalgar Square in London with a view of the traditional Christmas tree that has been sent from the people of Oslo to the people of London every year since the end of the Second World War as in gratitude for the help provided to Norway during that conflict. This picture is actually from last year, but the tradition continues. This was a cold day and the air was very crisp, but the sky was rather beautiful. I deliberately took the shot in such a way that Lord Nelson appears to be on top of the tree. Of course, there should have been snow... but one can't have everything. Location: London, England
