banksy christmas

My Christmas card for this year had to refer to my October trip to Bethlehem. I hope it isn't too early to send you all at 365 my Christmas greetings. I haven't had the camera out today but have been working on this, so that I can print enough before I miss all the posting dates. I have used the photograph of the Banksy art on the side of a wall in Bethlehem town, as the basis for the card. Every day, I read stories of the troubles and violence and unnecessary suffering that has worsened even since our visit, and my heart breaks. Thank you everyone who has encouraged me in this project since I started and to Rosie for telling me about it in the first place. It is lovely to get all of your comments, even though I know that my photography is still very hit and miss and point and shoot. Hopefully, in the end there will be improvement!

A beautiful and (in some ways unfortunately) appropriate card, Helen.

@tristansmum @gerry @daisyditch Thank you for your kind responses and for your lovely comment Daisy. Apologies for the long absence. Christmas didn't really happen in my household in the end but I hope to renew my photography efforts before too long.
