Happy Christmas

A Christmas album

/ mikeosbornphoto / 14 Comments

Christmas means a lot of things to an awful lot of people. Even to a photographer – who doesn’t really enjoy the festive season – it means something. Beautiful shiny little objects, blazing colours, warm light, bold bokeh and a great opportunity to capture a particular mood. I took my bagful of seasonal booty and photographed them in full daylight, then at dusk with candlelight and some background fairy lights.

I hope you enjoy this little essence of the season and have a very enjoyable Christmas.

Orthodox crossHappy Christmas to you all and many thanks for your invaluable support over the past year.

I’ve steered clear of the usual seasonal images and chosen something that is dear to my heart – architecture and the hidden corners of London.

This is the stunning blue dome of the Russian Orthodox Church in west London, studded with gold stars and crowned with a magnificent Orthodox cross. A beautiful, spiritually inspiring sight.
