Balance in Holiday Traditions

For the composition of my holiday photo I decided to include a gold reindeer and a crystal tree. My family almost every year travels during Christmas time, so we’ve never see a point to decorate our house or to get a Christmas tree. These are the only decorates that we put up every years. I purposely tried to create some moody and darker lighting to symbolize how no one’s home and it’s an empty house for all of the holiday season.
