#262 - SHINY (17 of 365)
I know that shiny also means cool or wonderful, but in this case I'm going with the more literal meaning of the word. This is the ceiling of the Semperoper Dresden, illumated by lots of lamps on the side and the wonderful antique chandelier in the middle, leaving the opera in a warm and shiny glow. :)

#286 - STORE FRONTS (15 of 365)
This store front displays the world famous and very traditional Meißen Porcelain. Meißen is a small city a few kilometers from Dresden and the famous porcelain is something the Saxonians (Saxony is one of the 16 Länder that make up the Federal Republic of Germany) are quite proud of.

#71 - DEBRIS (14 of 365)
This is the not so nice aftermath of 6 weeks of snow and a New Year's celebration: icy snow with gravel and firework remnants. Bleh!

#20 - BEVERAGES (13 of 365)
Give me a venti White Chocolate Mocha and I'm one of the happiest people on this planet. The friend I was with was easier to please and only needed a tall White Chocolate Mocha to be happy. :D

#177 - METALLIC (12 of 365)
A detailed picture of a metallic statue in Dresden. The statue itself is not really a beautiful sight, but if it provides for a good picture for the challenge, I'm not one to argue. :D And for all those who'd like to see the statue in its entirety, see below. But don't say I didn't warn you about the lack of beauty. :D

#92 - EYES (10 of 365)
This is actually my favorite of today's lot. Even though he is not directly looking at the camera, Diego's amber eyes really strike you in this picture and stand out against all the black and white of his fur. And I just love how peaceful and content he looks...

#182 - MORNING ROUTINE (9 of 365)
This is technically not a morning routine for Diego but rather an all-day-long routine. :D But I think it fits the theme nonetheless. And he looks sooooo cute, captured mid-lick with his pink little tongue! *cloud9* :D

#132 - GREEN (8 of 365)
Diego loved the Christmas tree and always tried (and succeeded) to grab some ornaments and then spread them all around the apartment, preferably under the couch. He was pretty sad that I took down his green, needling friend and playground today. Poor kitty. :D

#135 - HAIR (7 of 365)
When Diego is busy showering, he sometimes buries his face so deep in his fur that all you see is a big mass of black and white fluffy hair.

#144 - HIDING (6 of 365)
My big, fluffy, black and white Persian Diego, hiding (or trying to) behind a chair leg.

#193 - NATURAL FRAMING (5 of 365)
A Christmas tree light, photographed through the tree and thus naturally framed by the tree's branches and that little Santa. :D
(This picture can be found two pictures down with another lighting for another theme!)

#138 - HANGING (4 of 365)
One of my favorite Christmas tree ornaments: a little heart that hung on a Christmas present many, many years ago and says "For Christin". I kept it and have since used it to decorate my Christmas trees. :)

#130 - GLOWING (3 of 365)
I took down my Christmas tree today and thought I might get a few cool pictures out of it. I took a few variations of this one (one will fit another theme...). In this particular one, taken at low shutter speed, the light leaves a glowy ring around the electric candle and kind of makes the lettle santa hanger almost translucent. Glowing indeed. :)

#139 - HEALTH (1 of 365)
Like almost every other year, 2011 started with me having a cold. On top of that, I spent the last two days recording a CD with one of my choirs. A basket full of vitamine C is my way of trying to shake off that cold ASAP. And it makes a good picture. :D
