Here's a selection of pictures I took between Xmas and the New Year:
Staufen has an Advent calendar every year. People from the village create one window for each day, this year I found this one the best.
Although it got freezing cold on New Years Eve - the streets were basically ice-rinks - I went up the hill in our village to see the bonfire.
Lighting the fire up
Lots of smoke at first...
It's slowly starting to get hot
On fire!
The next day showed winter in all its beauty - time for a nice shot of a blackbird eating holly-berries.
And last but not least: A whiteheaded maki at the zoo in Zurich wishes you all a Happy New Year!

I love your photos and it's exactly as I remember the 2004 new year to be like!
The fire didn't burn well the first half hour. The village people say it's going to be a tough year. I could tell without lighting up a 8m high pile of wood...
