I took the pic today. It is the warmest 24th here [Central Europe] since
records began 60 years ago. It's definitely not what we are used to
think of an ideal Christmas weatherwise. So I chose a subject that
features both, the unusual weather, and something that reminds at least
a bit of a snowflake.
Another magical and wonderful photograph. Thanks for posting.
