I enjoy the history of Christmas and it's traditions around the world, collecting books and videos on the subject whenever possible. The bishop's mitre stems from the very beginning of the legend and makes for a very topical photo, Paul. Your perfect cropping and clarity of focus, as usual, provides us with a perfect example of photojournalism. Thank you for sharing it with us and a happy holiday season to you.
