I am very happy to host this contest and I mention that this was the second year that I done this and I hope in the future I can make something even more beautifull with it !

For me it was all about the holidays cheer and in the same time to give back to the Steemit community.
That beeing said I received a lot of entries that I did not accept this year and even I loved the photos I could see that a lot of them where just copy and paste from the internet.
But then I received a photo or more like a gif. that was a photo within a photo, a photo from internet and inside of it a real photo of a family (edited of course ) in the other picture. That was awesome and accepted it in the contest.
The contest is about real people celebrating the winter holidays and what I want to see each year is real people.
That being said I allways will respect a person need for privacy and I give options such as:

• make a photo of the tree and just put user name and year on a piece of paper.

Well...nobody did it....witch is a little bit funny to me ...but in any case I spent few hours to find people using the tag :
christmas-tree , and I just found myself....lol...
After that I looked for people that used just the tag Christmas or Tree and there I found some beautifull trees.

With all that being said I will use all my voting power to vote all the coment entris from this post and past ones as well as a thank you and tell you all :

Fabulos Christmas Tree WILL return next year with more prizes and surprises!

Thank you all and I will see you next time!
