25

Christmas has been so hi-jacked by commercialism and
materialism that it's easy to forget that for many people
it's a religious festival.

I love the way you captured this, Mairead. Beautiful image and excellent sentiment. ~

I love the detail in this image. I would have liked to see the door in the background framed by the tops of the poles in the foreground. Overall good quality shot with very obscure and interesting lighting.

I totally agree with you. All the stuff doesn't matter...the thing that matters most is the reason I celebrate this day. Merry Christmas to you and may God Bless you abundantly.

btw...this is an excellent image. Very, very good. You nailed this!

I agree with what you say. Commercialism has taken it over.
