Yes, my very first poll!

The first one does seem to be running away with the votes!

And yes, I did take all of these...

These (with the exception of the pine tree) were all taken in Prague, this last summer!

Thank you for your very kind words... :blush:

19. No. 1 is great if the sentiment is Happy New Year or Happy
Solstice.
No. 4 is great if the sentiment is more on Christmas or the Solstice.

IMHO.

Crop the first one so it is just the clock. Otherwise it is too busy.

This isn't actually the picture I plan to use...

It's just the one I had in the Photobucket...

Didn't feel like taking the time to load the "real" one...

And it's a better pic than this...cropped to make it more interesting...

Thanks for your good thoughts!

66. I was wondering where the pix were taken.
It looked like a Baroque religious establishment. The details seemed like central European so I quessed it was Melk Abbey in Austria. The two interior shots look like it, especially the one with the books.

The first three were taken in Prague...

At different locations...

The last two of the three was at a library in Prague. I don't remember the name, but it was amazing!

None of the three are religious establishments...

67. Only card #2 can truly represent Christmas! Card #1 is a CCINO
and everyone knows Cart #4 supported the invasion of Thanksgiving!

So I vote that you just send out pictures of Wes Clark in his swim trunks.

LMAO!

Your reasoning is irrefutable!

Sorry....I never took any pics of Wes Clark in his swimming trunks, or in anything else for that matter!

And it's a requirement for my holiday card pic to have been taken by me!

75. Then I revert to voting for #1
The ceiling paintings are pretty, but the angles don't flatter them.

And I'm sorry you never photoed Wes Clark in his trunks too. It's practically in the Bill of Rights.

I don't know how Californians traditionally celebrate the holidays, but have winter scenes completely been eliminated as a theme?

I know that neither you nor your fellow Californians have probably ever known snow or cold during the holidays, but has it never even been hinted at in your traditions?

BTW, I voted for #4.

74. My dear Canuckistanian!
Well, your points are well taken!

I am somewhat limited for a couple of reasons...

First, the picture must be something I took during this year...

And so as to not offend the Jewish wing of the family, it cannot be overly Christian...

Our travels usually do not involve snow or coldness...

So I've pretty much given up on the traditional picture, and gone with whatever I have that is beautiful!

Lots of my California friends send cards with snow and traditional themes...

Thanks for your vote, and for your comments!

I appreciate them, and you both...:hug:
