Here is another shot from the wonderful Vancouver Festival of Lights. This year the conditions were quite mild and ideal for night photography. The photo was taken in December 2024, with my trusty Olympus digital camera. Happy Holidays!

I was very lucky to get this photo. One night, I recall hearing noises coming from the living room. Imagining that a burglar had come to purloin my Christmas gifts for my wife, I silently crept down the stairs with my camera in hand to get a photo of the intruder. As I entered the room, I spotted the intruder and quickly took his photo. To my surprise, it was Santa Claus, caught in the act of placing gifts around our tree! Once he had finished, we shook hands. He apologized for having to rush off. I understood and waved goodbye.
The photo was taken with my trusty Olympus digital camera.
Have Merry Christmas!
