I found these pretty hyacints on my desc at the office today - A greeting from "the secret elf". During the month of December everyone is "a secret elf" for someone else. Each elf is to make her / himself known in some way 3 times. It's been nice to make surprises - and to be surprised!

... and enlightens the evenings as well. It is often dark outside, both when you go to work and come back from work ... We do need some soft candlelight!

My bicycle tire punctured on Wednesday - so I had to do some extra walking and I got home late. When walking slowly towards the train station, I discovered that the station looks pretty cool with all these lights ... I haven't noticed that when biking! And as I arrived to the station, I met an acquintance, I hadn't talked with for a long time ... we chatted and cathed up in the train. So the punctured tire was not a disaster, after all.
... Have a great weekend,
Nina

Lovely photography! I really need to get out the candles. This year has been quite crazy and I haven't even done half of what I usually do. Have a blessed Christmas.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet office practice - I too really like the shot of the stationary. Isn't it funny how sometimes what seemed a bad break turns out just fine, if not good. I enjoyed your shots and edits.
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays Nina!
