Santa Claus (*)

Australia

National icon of the North Pole. Super-hero to children the world over.
Caught in the dead of night, sneaking into homes to check on the boys and girls. Have YOU been good this year?

I love this pic. Vibrant colours and the pose of Santa is excellent. Sharpness and clarity too. Hope he wasn't one of those singing noisy Santa's in the dead of night hehehe.

Twas the dead of night. Even if we had decorations up at this time of the year, you wouldn't be able to see them in the dead of night. Anyway, Santa was only checking up to see if the kids have been good this year in preparation for his big trip on Dec. 24 ;-)

Where did you find Santa this time of year? A very anonomous Santa since you can't see his or her face, which works well. Maybee a more Christmassy background would look good.

Well done, Gayle. This is a true interNATIONAL ICON. I especially like the angle of the shot as it lets me insert my own personal image of Santa into the picture. That's good viewer involvement!
