I have been interested in photography for some years, but I didn’t photograph much myself until I got my first digital camera a couple of years ago.

    The colours of the stream are very beautiful. I missed a bit more room for this image – the crop is quite tight.

    ps. Santa Clause comes from Lapland, Finland by the way. :)
