I never tire of Christmas scenes. It doesn't matter that it might be yet one more snap of a street adorned with twinkling multi-colored lights. I love to know that wherever it is in the world, there is a festive feel and troubles are pushed to the back of the mind for just a short time. Join me on a flip through a photo book of Christmas scenes around the world.
