A White Christmas in Bingham

Hi, It was a great delight to see the snow fall on Christmas morning:)

As soon as it was light I dashed down to the Market Square in Bingham to take these pictures of the Buttercross draped in white snow.

Very little trffic has passed through the town center before I arrived




Here are some views of Bingham from within the Buttercross.







This last shot was taken on my Canon G6 about mid-day as we walked home from Church.
Wishing everybody a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
