Weekly Date Challenge # 98- Dec 26. Merry Christmas

Hi everyone, Merry Christmas and welcome to the Weekly Date Challenge #98. The challenge date is December 26th. This challenge will run to the 2 January at noon GMT, when I will be back from a short break.

1: The image you enter can be the best of the pics you have taken on
the given date (of any year) with a Pentax DSLR or SLR or not the
best (you get to choose!), but it must have been taken on that
particular day.

2: Posted size is a maximum of 1000 pixels along the largest side and
300kb. I won't disqualify you if you don't adhere strictly to these
requirements but may ask you to shrink your image a bit if it's
excessively large.

3: Creative post processing is allowed and encouraged (by some). If
possible please leave EXIF data intact in your output image.

4: Start looking and have fun!

The reason to choose Dec 26th is that a few of you will have received new photographic toys on Christmas Day and hopefully you are trying them out resulting in heaps of photos that can be posted in the challenge.

Here is a one of mine from last year.
