Description
In our region the old year is represented by an old lady, so I thought this image was a good one, with a bit of manipulation, to represent the old 2011 fading away into 2012. While this hasn't been a good year for Italy, the future looks bleak. Anyway, I want to be optimistic.
Thanks for your kind comments.

I love your image Sandra and its symbolism - and the rest of the world is heading into 2012 with as many problems as Italy. Let’s hope that we all make the transition. Have a Happy, Healthy and Peaceful New Year!
excellent work on this Sandra and is too dang true
ME ENCANTA .
This is WONDERFUL!! A great scene. I hope 2012 will bring better times.
Fasntastic shot and postwork. Looks superb!

a wonderful scene, well done. I wish good things for you in the new year.
A splendid photo by how you think about 'the old year'. Stay optimistic, my friend. Never worry in advance.
Super image erland
COOOOOOL
belle image!!
Very Well Done!! :)
A very wonderful image to see out the old and bring in the new. New Year's Day is always such a complex mixture of hope and fear, relief and worry, and this year more so than many previous ones. Happy new year to you and your loved ones. May better times come to our beautiful blue planet, and more wisdom to humanity.
fairness will prevail... trust?!! and 2012 is the long awaited year :-D wonderful image!!!
A very good symbol. I also like the snow. Great manipulation and Happy New Year !
Excellent Image..Happy New Years
beautiful and lovely image! Happy New Year!
Peace full year.
Best wishes, health and creativity for the New Year 2012!
Precious capture my friend, fantastic photo!
Great image! If it's any consolation, I'm not sure - humanly speaking - that the future looks all that great for ANY nations right now! It seems like the economy has tanked worldwide! :( That said, I'm an eternal optimist, and I wish you and yours a wonderful 2012, filled with much happiness and good health!
Nice idea, very well done!
Made magical. I really like. Greets Juli
Superbe image bravo :)
Exclusive photo, I like it because of atmosphere. M
Great,this reminds me of the Little Ol Lady at 12 o Clock,saying from a Potter Flick eh.
This is great. What a great representation!
well I'm late, but before I end today I want to do at least one piece from your earlier work, where there are still many I haven't commented on. This is a wonderful evocation of moving from one realm to the next, and while the outlook for many countries is not bright, you've made the destination a gentle snowy scene almost from an ideal christmas. Even as straight photography, the back image---a storefront? with two windows above, or wall areas?---is fascinating in its own right. And playful cats, and those orbs of light, illuminating that woman out of the darkness. Beautiful & enchanted, and a fine piece of montage, Sandra. I'll be back for more. But as always, beautiful & very thoughtful work...
