My favourite part of the season, are all the twinkly lights and displays - whatever form that they take!

I love the backlit buildings with the dark blue sky behind it! Lovely!

The Schwibbögen are very traditional where my mother is from The light symbolizes the longing of the miners who didn't see the daylight in winter for weeks sometimes due to their long working hours below the surface. During the Christmas shift, the lights may also have represented the safety lamps of all the comrades from the mining team who had completed the year of dangerous work in the mine.

And yes, that one is awesome!
