Happy Christ Mass

On Manger Square in Bethlehem there is a building which contains gifts to this town from around the world……scores of nativity scenes from a host of different nations created by artists and ordinary groups of people – as an artist it’s wonderful to see and really warms you fully to the gifts of humanity, magic and enlightenment at Christmas…………..(thankyou George!)

These figures are all life size but the contributions come in all shapes and sizes, materials and techniques, reflecting something of the national culture but all united through what they depict.....it's a very special collection.

May all the happiness and blessings of Christmas come to you and yours wherever you are!

Merry Christmas and all the best for a Peaceful New Year!

Kev and Frances (fantosh)

Hi Kev and thank you for the best wishes, which I feel like being addressed to me personally. I wish you and your love ones all the best for the next year.

Aleks

Dear Kev,
May you also be continued to be blessed--with creativity, love, energy and happiness!
I like your Workshop, so curious a juxtaposition for eyes used to the Western iconography.
Take care Kev. Warm regards at Christmas,

A special Christmas wish to you and your family, Kev. I look forward to your next series of images.
This series has been so well put together, enlightning and thought provoking.

merry Christmas Kev, best.

all the best to you and your close ones for the new year, Kev.
(gosh it's so hard to get back to work... fortunately four days and counting before India :D...)

Christmas is the thing to turn us up side down...
To make us softer and lovable. To make us tolerant and forgivable.
To enjoy the philosophy of existence and the strength of meditations...
No wonder it lasts only few days...!!!!
Who could possibly withstand this regime, this goodness enforced upon us by the merciless traditions and some dreamy ideas.
Uff... Thanks to Almighty...It's over...
We can come back to the very own, beloved ourselves...
Watch out, Kevin (:-)))))))))))))))))))))
-----------------------------
Once more, dear friend.
Endless happiness and prosperity may this season bless you with.
The glorious 2007 as well...
(Thanks for mentioning, for it means a heaven for me)

Hello Kev!
Searching TE for Nativities to add to my group theme " Crêches de Noël Nativities ", I came upon your photos from Bethlehem. Where else could we get better nativities from? I have added several of your photos to my theme. I hope you don't mind.
I have also been through most your advent photos, and found them very deep in thought!
What a pity that the place where Christ was born to save us from violence is still one of the most violent parts of the world!
Thank you for sharing all these gifts with us anyway!
This posting is great with good colours, sharpness and play of lights!
Best wishes!
Marie Louise.
