TRIANGLE WITH HOLY CIRCLE

Angel on top of the biggest (natural) Christmas tree on earth at the Dortmund market.
The tree is about 45 m high, with 1700 single trees, 40.000 lights and 20 big candles.
Came across yesterday, when they worked at the tree to turn out the lights
and probably to bring the angel down to earth again.

If you want to know more about the tree:

An awesome capture and story Werner! If the tree is outside, where did the shadows come from? P'shop? V.
