That's a nice arrangement for your mother, John. I know both Arles and Avignon, I bet she'll like the environment. Ah, la douce France ;o)).
Nice compilation with the smaller pics (with excellent detail in them) hung as presents in the tree. TFS!
All the best for 2008 to you and Yolanda and your family, and... Merry Christmas!

Hi John.Dit is een echte John Tulip. Zeer sterk in al zijn facetten en een prachtig verhaal erbij. Als ik nog terug denk aan mijn eerste reacties op dit soort opname's was dat heel anders. Maar door jouw werk ben ik ze gaan waarderen en bewonderen.
Prachtige opname en erg mooi creatie.

Mooie collage John.
Eerst keek ik over die kleine foto's heen en vond ik de achtergrond storend. Totdat ik je note las, en nu vind ik het harstikke goed. Ja, kan ik ook niks aan doen. ;-)

Hi John,

Hahaha, prachtige note! Alleen maar vragen over toerisme, maar niet haar hand. Grappig :-). En prachtig om oma vechtlustig met de stok omhoog te zien zwaaien als 'tot ziens'.
Ja, jammer dat ik er niet was. Maar een volgende keer zeker weer bellen als je in de buurt bent! Wanneer ben je terug van Montreal?
De beste wensen voor de kerst-dagen en 2008!!

Groeten,
Dennis

Johnty, lovely story, and how wonderful for Mother to go to Marseilles with Myrna - all the "M"s!! What an experience for her at 87!!
And what an excellent collage behind them all. BRAVO!

And you work hard for the next few days, and after that - hurrah you'll be in Montreal again - doesn't time fly fast - it's like yesterday that you were there before.

Be good JT, keep safe and we'll see you around soon

Hi John
Thanks for this family post and for the PP work. Cute composition relating a story. I like it as well as your note. I think I'd rather join the group of your dear ones.
By the way, what brings you to Montréal at this time of the year, work or tourism?
Hope you have a good time here and take a lot of winter shots.
Welcome in our frozen province.
Merry Christmas.
