This is a lovely Christmas decoration and I'm happy to see it even after Christmas is over! You arranged everything so beautifully in the lovely red bowl. I love the background too!

To see fresh plants is a refreshing sight in the cold of winter. It does not really look like Christmas in spite of the red container. Those plants could bloom until spring, even the Poinsettias. The colors of this still life are pleasant. I appreciate that they look realistic. The background emphasizes the flower decoration nicely. The still life has elegance, is balanced and well framed.

I do not think apologies are needed for posting any photo, seasonal or other wise when it is done this well.
Your background, use of light, sharp focus, details and artistic enhancements make this so special.
Beautiful work Cara Mia Annie :)

Comment from Terry Loftus
I like the Christmas Theme :) The colors are very vibrant the way that the blurred reflection surrounds the bowl is really lovely. Sharp and clean lines. Very nice

There is never a bad time for Christmas photos. My favorite holiday. Your centerpiece is beautiful. Love the bright red color. Nice textures and shapes. Background is a nice contrast for the centerpiece. Well focused and lighting is excellent.

I don't mind at all. There is so much time and effort that goes into Christmas its a shame it is over so quickly.
All that preparation should be enjoyed for a while.
I am glad you posted this very lovely image.
I love the colors. I love how you have blended the background.
I personally am not familiar with the technique you used here but i must say it is stunning.
A true pleasure to view.
Thank you for sharing.
