Your best Christmas photos 2022
The magic of Christmas has settled in the Principality!
On the occasion of our Christmas contest, we asked our readers to send us their most beautiful shot to illustrate this joyous celebration. We received more than fifty entries, and the choice was difficult, because many people went to great lengths. Here is a selection of 20 photos that we preferred.
My beautiful firtree King of forests
It’s hard to imagine a Christmas without a tree, but everyone is free to give it a very particular identity. Virginie, for example, bet on height, but also on a “natural” spirit. For Tam, no balls or garlands: a mountain of stuffed animals adorns the tree. Lisa, our winner from last yearopted this time for a white Christmas.
Three other Internet users, who contacted us by private message, also knew how to bring the magic of Christmas into their homes, with the timeless combination of red, green and white, a superb view of the port of Monaco or even a Christmas tree… only made of wood!
It’s Christmas for everyone…
… Including for animals! Our readers have understood this well, by immortalizing their faithful companions. Jeanne (who also won our competition this year), Stéphane and a surfer, for example, let their cats approach the tree. It even seems that some have succeeded in their traditional infiltration mission…
Calmer on the other hand, the rabbits of Béatrice and Laurence have slipped perfectly into the decor.
The magic is in the details
For most people, Christmas is not confined to the traditional tree, and some do not hesitate to transform their house for the occasion. Wooden horses, Christmas villages, carousels and fully decorated windows are appropriate. And what about Véronique, who opted for home decoration, with a fireplace made of paper and cardboard? The effect is more than successful!
Christmas in Monaco, somewhere, while strolling…
The magic of the holidays continues beyond the walls of the home. Especially in Monaco, where everything is done to offer an enchanting spectacle to passers-by. This Internet user, who contacted us by email, immortalized the magnificent illuminated Ferris Wheel of the Christmas Village.
Two other readers, for their part, sent us photos of superb Christmas trees taken in the halls… Some of you will no doubt have recognized the Metropole Shopping Center, which has not skimped on its festive decoration!
