Christmas Holidays

There is nothing more Canadian than a backyard hockey rink. This one is built on public land by volunteers. The rink will be filled with children, and possibly some adults during the Christmas Holidays which started today. The back fences of the three homes who appear to support this endeavor have posted flags from all the Canadian National Hockey League teams and also some lights for night play, which is most of the day at this time of year. Notice how long the shadows are in the middle of the day.

For the Saturday Self-challenge: Create an image that highlights your favourite aspect of the holiday season.
