Christmas photo competition

come one, come all to the lanc's christmas photo competition!

i'm looking for a christmas-ish shot of something aviation related, be it a plane, person or a nut from an aero engine

public opinion will decide the best shot, but if i don't agree with public opinion, i'll be judging

rules-

1) the shot must contain snow, or some sort of christmas decoration
2) it must have some sort of plane, aviator or something with a strong aviation link
3) the winner will be the most festive shot
4) the prize has yet to be decided

What would Christmas be without RCAF Christmas cards?

Alright, I'll look for something better.

Mines clearly the best, it has a plane, an aviatior, has snow, is at christmas and actually says merry christmas on the bombs

Heres that -110 in the snow for good measure too.
