A cheerful outdoor Christmas display near a waterfront features a large Santa Claus figure holding a candy cane beside a decorated tree with red baubles. In front, a blue sign with white snowflakes reads “Merry Christmas / Tafarn Y Garth / Nadolig Llawen.” Two wireframe reindeer lit with festive lights stand nearby. The background includes a scenic view of water, a pier, colourful buildings, and a hillside dotted with houses and trees.

A person in a bright red coat stands leaning against a large, ornate wooden door framed by pale stone architecture. The door features deep geometric panels, and the person is looking slightly toward the camera with gloved hands at their sides. Wide stone steps lead up to the doorway.

A black-and-white photograph captures a tranquil outdoor scene with a paved pathway flanked by grassy areas and several benches. In the foreground, a weathered wooden bench sits on a concrete slab. Further back, more benches line a stone wall. The path leads toward a large historic castle with multiple towers and battlements, situated near a bridge. Street lamps and parked cars line the road, while tree-covered hills rise in the background beneath a bright sky.

“…photographs of nudes were associated with pornography rather than with artful, tender erotic poesy”

Sadly, not much has changed, but if you’re in Zurich, a must see exhibition.

Marianne Breslauer.

She attended photography classes between 1927 and 1929, and joined the avant-garde group of Berlin including artists, such as Paul Citroen and Umbo, whose portraits she made. She went on long wandering walks during which she photographed people, things and street scenes.

Black-and-white photo of a coin-operated photo booth indoors. A person sits inside with the curtain partly closed, their legs and sneakers visible. The booth stands beside a brick wall displaying several framed artworks, the lowest of which shows the rear view of an attractive woman with naked buttocks. A patterned tile flooring runs across the foreground.

Nadolig Llawen/Merry Christmas everyone.

This is from 2013, but it probably looks the same today.

Night, a small town square, a column with a statue of Llewelyn Fawr and a Christmas tree. Due to the long exposure there are light trails from the traffic.

On Christmas Eve 1968, in Lunar orbit, the Apollo 8 crew took this photo: “Earthrise."

I'll never forget how inspiring the Apollo missions were to my brother and me as kids. They showed us what our country and humanity can accomplish when we work together toward a common goal.
