More Christmas stuff

It's kind of silly. When I collected the images for this month's gallery it was almost June, and much of my artwork has to do with Christmas (and I have to tell that Turku happens to be the official Christmas city of Finland).

One can have quite mixed feelings about the editorial staff - some times they can be pretty conservative, and at other times really open minded. This Christmas they didn't want the same "boring" winter scenery for the first page of the Christmas issue, but something more light-minded. So they asked me to add some Christmas elves hanging around the building where we work. (We work on the third floor, by the way).

The elves where made in Xara X, on top of the imported digital photo of the building. Some colour correction and unsharp masking were done in Photoshop.
