Last week of 2011. Saying goodbye to a year full of discoveries and great challenges!
The weekly photo challenge was a wonderful way to get all of us inspired to share our best interpretations of daily routine events. The inspiration for this week´s challenge is “Winter”.
Here is my interpretation for the suggested theme – very fitting for this time of the year, [right now in Brazil, we're enjoying a warm Summer], the Holiday Spirit reminds us of our time back home, where the wintery scenario would take over…
‘Warmest’ wishes for a very happy and peaceful New Year – Cheers!

Thank you, Jake! Tried to do something a bit more fun with the “winter” theme… and found some pics back from the “East Coast Snowpocalipse”… Remember?
Greetings and Happy New Year!

Love the children inside with the snow heavy outside. Makes the scene warmer.

Thank you! That was the idea behind the shoot… Taking advantage of the kids watching TV during a snowy day… Finding the beautiful within the common, the mundane… Cheers!
