A Christmas window display at Selfridges in London

I have not as yet made my London trip before Christmas. I promised myself at least one visit just to do photos of all the wonderful Christmas deco that happens in that amazing city. Yet, I am still happily sticking to the English countryside. Shall I make the trip before Christmas? I honestly don't know.

So, for today's #wednesdaywalk I'll share some images from the last time I was in London 2016

Another amazing display in Selfridges. You can see the red double-decker buses in the window's reflection.

Another avante-garde sort of Window display.

All the streets and thoroughfares are always so decked out this time of year.

The colours are not always traditional Green and Red and Gold either.

But there is Gold,

and Silver

And Carnaby Street joins is as well

Of course even at Christmas pasts I was still a creature of the Coffee Shop

and my favourite place in London was the caffee Nero that was connected to the Church of St. James on Picadilly and Jermyn st.

It is an amazing place as you can sit in the courtyard of the church and they also have free world class concerts every tues and thursday. I heard some wonderful things from 4 piece string to operatic arias to amazing piano concerts here.

And off the courtyard this time of year (and other times as well) they have an open air bazaar peddling some wonderful wares by local artists and vendors.

It is making me want to go all the more. Though I have told myself if I do not make it before the New Year, that is also fine. As one can find some wonderful sales and also find the city a bit quieter in January, which is always nice.

I also took a good morning ramble with Ivan the dog today.

But, that will have to be a post for another day.

I've my tea made and am settling into my little studio room here in the house to get down to some work. I am considering how to best approach the coming New Year with what I would like my Art New Year's Resolution to be. I shall have to have a think on it.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday and that you had a moment to take a good #wednesdaywalk.
