Small road leading from the bottom of the picture to the middle where it disappears in snow. The road is framed by bushes and small trees. The whole scene is covered with a thin layer of snow.
Vintage photo in sepia, showing six standing women dressed in white, long gowns with glitter at the waist with tall, conical hats on their heads and holding a candle each. They are standing in groups of three and between the groups is a Santa sitting down, dressed in dark colours with a bearded mask covering the face, clogs on their feet and a lantern in hand. Behind the Santa is a Christmas tree. Those hats, though, are usually not worn by women at all, but men (the so called Staffandrängarna), so here we have an example of playing with traditional gender roles.
Green mountains in the foreground with a castle on the left one, and a hint of a church behind it. And another church can be seen on the right side. In the background the mountains are blue-tinted. The upper part of the shot is full of clouds.
Tabby laying right on top of a notebook with a fully handwritten page in green ink. Next to one of the paws is a green pen.

Silhouette of a cat sleeping on top of an electric piano next to a pillow. Behind her is a sunny window with several plants and a decoration in the shape of the silhouette of at thin cat.
View of a river in the summer, seen straight on - as if taken from a bridge. The sides are lined with green trees, and some people are walking next to the water. One man is sitting on the river bank under a tree. In the far distance is a bridge with some people in bathing-suits sitting on the railing as if getting ready to jump in.
Big, yellow sunflower with a small one next to it, against a blue sky. Above it a bee is flying, slightly out of focus.
Curled up tabby cat with half-closed eyes next to my leg covered in a blue-and-white striped fabric.

Night skyline of Tokyo with Tokyo Tower burning bright in the middle of it all. To the far right the silhouette of a man looking out of the window with this view.

Tortie cat standing on the top of the back of a tall office chair, looking straight at us.
Landscape view. Road in the foreground, then green flat fields all the way to the horizon. Above a sky with heavy rain clouds and in the distance rain is falling down like a curtain.
Narrow street at night. The pavement is cobblestones. The surrounding houses are tall enough to block out most of the black sky and are all in a warm yellow in colour. There is several restaurants in the street with tables outside, some of them lighted with what looks like Christmas illuminations.
Front facade of St Peter's in Rome at night lit up with an orange glow.
Night shot of a section of Colosseum, showing the three sections of arched openings and the curve of the building. The arches are lit with orange lights and the ones in the middle section decorated with pictures of Roman statues. There are a few people walking in the street in front of the building and in the distance there are a couple of green lights from a street-light.
View of a central stone pine tree against a blue sky with some clouds. On the right is the corner of a classic-style building, on the left a mass of green trees and bushes.
Blooming red roses against a background of green leaves.
Saint Peter's Basilica seen from the distance at night. The church is lit up and the big dome is the brightest part. Closer to the camera is a bridge with lights on and they are reflected in the water of the Tiber river.
Female figure in a pink, sleeve-less dress painted on a white background. She has light pink wings and is holding a ribbon in her hands. Above her is a red band. The lower part of the painting is missing and her facial expression is hard to see.
Opulent church altar with marble statues and gold decorations surrounding it. Also fresh, pink flowers are present.
Etruscan round bronze mirror with a really thin handle. On the mirror is depicted a couple of figures, one man holding a lyre and one woman, and above them a feline figure.
Curved portico with pillars in shade looking out to green grass and a two-storey flat structure which is the upper part of the Nymphaeum loggia. Stone-pine trees are in the background.
Roman relief showing Mithras killing the bull.
View of Piazza del Popolo towards the big obelisk and the two Baroque twin churches seen on either side of it. It is daytime and raining and hardly any person can be seen.
Tortie cat sitting in a big cardboard box. Book-shelves in the background.
The Spanish Steps in Rome, seen from the bottom up towards the church at the top. The steps are decorated with an abundance of flowers.
Branch of pink cherry blossoms, with some buds at the end, against a pink backdrop of more cherry blossoms.
Church interior, looking along the central axis of the building towards the altar. Above the altar, topped with a cross, is a big stained glass window. The sides are flanked by thick pillars, with arched openings out to the side aisles. Above them are big windows. Above, in the middle of the photo, is a fan-vaulted ceiling in the perpendicular style, which kind of looks like the underside of chanterelles.
