Alternative Christmas..



Nothing says welcome and have a fabulous Christmas in Perth more than a ginormous Xmas tree, blue skies and warm sunshine, especially if you are coming from the chilly Northern hemisphere! Every year I get the urge to change-up my traditional tree, I love this one but it may be a bit big for my wee house :) Snapped when picking up fellow bloggers arriving from Singapore at Terminal one, international arrivals, Perth Airport. Talk about big balls!! I'm glad I caught a passerby in the shot below so you can see the perspective. I've just looked back and noticed that this is my first nod to the festive season.. I'm very much looking forward to the excitement of two grandchildren and many adorable great nieces and nephews. Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe...

  1. I think it would feel very weird for us to have blue skies like this and high temperatures at Christmas :) The tree is original and eye-catching!

  2. It's gigantic Grace! I saw some beautiful Christmas decorations at the airport when we picked up our daughter, but didn't take photos :(

  4. Big balls is right! Yikes! It's a good thing that one of those high up ones didn't fall on that lady's head! That is certainly the most creative version of a holiday tree that I've ever seen.

  6. Now that is an unusual tree. I can't image it being summertime during the holidays.

    Good luck on your family feast. I survived 22 at Thanksgiving. we are headed to NC to be with two of our daughters this Christmas. Merry Christmas Grace.

  12. I love it but I'm glad you included the 2nd shot as I had no idea it was so big from the first photo!

    I contend that this season is essentially a winter solstice celebration and is mostly about shopping, family, trees, decorations, etc. This tree fits in perfectly!

    Happy Holidays, Grace!

    I've been photographing Christmas stuff, starting up a series by the weekend, if I'm not mistaken.
