This is the Christmas market in Joliette, the largest city close to my home. This is the first time they did this and it is inspired by European traditions from Germany and Austria (not that I would know because I've never been there).

there are lots of little cabins with people selling locally produced art and products. I tasted some hot, spiced wine and Christmas music was playing. It's enough to put you in the mood of the season!

That's neat! Nice choice for b&w & the story to go along with it is very nice.

This looks beautiful. Great choice to do it in BW. Are those balloons on the tree in front? If so, it seems like they would burst if they get in touch with the needles.

I lived in Germany for many, many years and yes, they have those Christmas markets with wonderful foods and drinks, as well as hand-crafted things to buy. It's always very festive and really puts you in the mood. I just had a friend visit from Germany, and we were talking about just such markets and some of the seasonal things you could get there.

Still more great use of those blurred silhouettes! I like the b&w choice here, especially since most Xmas pictures are of the colors.
