Starshine through my windows

All Through The Year

As this year ends and another begins here are some glimpses of the colours of my world.

We are blessed to see the sunrise each morning and the sunset each evening

with an unobstructed view of the sky.

Each day a new world awaits outside our windows and in the coming year

I plan to photograph some of the beautiful paintings in the sky and share them with you.

May the coming year be filled with all the people, places, beauty, bounty and love

that make your heart sing...Happy New Year!

I'm linking to Mary's Dear Little Red House for this first Mosaic Monday of 2012.

Stop by for a visit - you'll find inspiration there...

The colours of Christmas at our house are usually traditional but after changing to new strings of LED lights a couple of years ago, we've added some more modern colours. I have always found it difficult to take a good photo of the Christmas tree and this year experimented with just moving the camera slightly as the picture is snapped. It makes for some interesting results. I've also learned that when taking pictures of large outdoor lighting displays it would help not to have one's camera set for landscapes. Recently, while in the city, I took these photos of the Bright Lights display which surrounded the Edmonton General Hospital - quite a sight but you had to be there to see it!
Happy Holidays - hope your days are filled with laughter and light!
