    AS THE WINNER OF THE NOVEMBER COMPETITION cactus-girl HAS CHOSEN THE DECEMBER THEME
    :star:"Let There Be Light" :star:


    In her own words:-

    "In the darkest month of the year there is still much light to cheer us. Capture those beautiful sunrises and sunsets, bright sunny days and frosty gardens, festive lights and candles, and warm cosy fires."
