Tempo di Natale finito al km zero. Please scroll down for english text.
Natale è alle spalle, ma qualche piccolo segno è ancora visibile durante le mie passeggiate. Questo mi lascia un senso di malinconia…
Christmas time is over, but still a few traces are visible during my daily walk. This leave me a little melancholic…
A lonely Santa... jan. 2012
the quiet photographer 
Maliconiciiiiisssssimooooo!
Hi,
Santa does look lonely there all by himself with just a bit of tinsel. There are only a couple of places I have seen that still have a few decorations left up, I actually wondered if they forgot they were there. 🙂
Thank You for visiting my blog.
Thanks munchow for your comment. The red and white cone gave me some…trouble when I was editing ( I have two other slightly different shots of the same scene) I was not sure about it. First I found it “disturbing” but than I realized the color to be the same of the poor santa and being the cone placed in a dark area it gives some movement therefore I decided it was ok. At the end it must be a “disturbing” photo, otherwise it would be just boring…grazie, ciao

It is indeed a sad and lonely santa. Hope he will survive another year in waiting… It might sound strange, but I like the little glimpse of a cone to the right that almost reflects the santa.
That santa is looking a little sad and lonely. Maybe he needed rescuing 😉
Concordo, da noi in ufficio c’è ancora l’albero, ormai senza più addobbi, abbandonato li in un angolo ….
Ciao Robert – here is a photograph which I took last January, when I had the same comment:
Have a great year! Zenon
Great photo, more “tragic” than mine…
robert
Gli addobbi superstiti post-feste sono di una malinconia disarmante infatti..
Santa will be alone all year then the end of 2012 we will remember him again 🙂 Thank you dear Robert, I hope you had a nice time during Christmas Holiday. Probably you walked where I knew… around my home in Piazza Udine… I usually walked to Esselunga Market… I miss, so much my Italy days… Have a nice and enjoyable day,
With my love, nia
Thank you Nia to be an active commenter on my small blog! I’m living near Milan but not in Milan. But we have an Esselunga Market as well 😉
