This is it, New Year’s Day on the Chinese calendar. Two more pretty images for you:
(Yeah, the last one is an ad … but I liked the image enough to conveniently overlook that. Maybe Horseware Ireland will show its appreciation by magically turning up and monetizing my blog. The shameless link is for their benefit, really.)
Happiness and prosperity to all today and for the rest of the year. Myself, I could use a little prosperity …
… which is, near as I can tell from the Interwebz, the English spelling of what, phonetically, I’d learned as “gung hei fat choy” — Happy Chinese New Year. This year, Chinese New Year falls on January 31st, and 2014 is the Year of the Horse. Thought I’d share a few of the nicer images I’ve seen to celebrate the occasion. (There are some even nicer ones that are copyrighted and/or not free, and I’m not sharing those … if any of the ones I am sharing are violating anyone’s rules, please just let me know and I’ll take them down with a big mea culpa.)
Also — if you have a nice one you’d like to share, send it hither and I’ll add it to the gallery!
