Christmas Markets 1

The Christmas markets opened here at the weekend – we’re on countdown to Christmas now! Traditional handicrafts and various gifts as well as tasty food and drink are offered every year at these traditional festive German markets. As such, they’re very popular and there are always people coming and going…I used a long exposure to convey this feeling.
