It was also lovely to see Christmas from different areas of the World: - Australia, Canada, America and of course here in the UK. I thought I would share some of my favorite photographs from those of you who took up the challenge. I cannot include them all as there are far too many, I am so very sorry if I have missed you out, it is not intentional.
The photographs are embedded into this blog post directly from Instagram so apologies if they take a short while to appear, but they are worth the wait I promise! You can view all the photographs by searching Instagram using #25FestiveDays
If the photos appeal to you then feel free to give them a heart or pop over to Instagram and follow them too.

I may very well do another photo challenge in 2016, maybe in the Summer, not sure of the theme at the moment but I will get my thinking cap on. Do let me know if you can think of a particular theme that maybe of interest, or it you are interested in jointly running a photo challenge with myself.
* If I have included your photo and you would prefer it was removed from this blog post please let me know.
