2nd December: Santa's Solace
That is my little joke because the moon is what you see the most of there. It is so far north that there is only about 4 hours of daylight in the winter. Lapland is cloaked in a kind of permanent twilight.
Which, to me, makes Santa easier to relate to as an adult. He's probably a night owl - like a lot of us. Slaving away on that naughty or nice spreadsheet until the crack o' dawn.
But I secretly hope he's a lost yeti or a sort of reverse lycanthrope - a lone wolf by day who transforms into Santa at night.
That would be cool. And would explain why no one has found him yet.

Against a black background it's a bit warmer somehow, but looks a bit washed out here. I just like the shock of light against the powder whites and blues.

Oh dear, poor Santa…

Ps.Uh… Edited, hope looks better now.

Shitake, I love the way you put images in comments. Ok, sometimes it breaks the page a bit, but I really like the overall concept :)

Lovely shot! We live very close to lapland and can vouch for the fact that winter is a very dark time. Thick cloud cover means that often it seems dark 24 hrs a day.
