This image is a follow on piece to "White Christmas". I enjoyed playing with colour and black and white to create a contrast between myself and the cold white world outside in "White Christmas" but here it's the opposite and the only source of colour and warmth is the fire behind me. I thought of the title even before I took the pictures but I'd love to hear whether you think the image works or not. Thank you for viewing.

As always I love helpful criticism and comments. Hope you enjoy my work.

You're very welcome

You should show them in pics more often you know

It's not such a bad idea, after all they're very pretty, don't you think?

Do you paint your toenails?

I don't really like them and I never bother to paint them. I don't have enough time.

A series of painting them in steps or something like that
Can be long shots, close-ups, many different angles
Can be like a ritual kinda thing or I dunno

What do you think?
