Here we are at the second day of the new year and it's time for my annual giveaway. Those of you who have read my blog for a while know the drill - choose three of the following 15 photos and let me know which ones (just mention the numbers) in the comments. By the end of the weekend I will draw the name of one commenter (the old fashioned way, with names in a hat) who will get photo cards of the three images s/he chose.
I had a hard time this year to choose the 15 favorite photos - I started out with more than double the amount and had to eliminate so many - that was a difficult process. But I am quite happy with my selection now and I hope you will be, too. While going through the photos and decide on the final 15, I had some hot chocolate in the mug above that I bought several years ago from an Etsy shop. You can see that it has some wear, but even though it's chipped, I love it and use it often. Two small Stroopwafels were very welcome as well. This top photo, of course, is for Bleubeard and Elizabeth's T Tuesday.
Without further ado here we go:

It's hard to pick 3. You have some lovely photos for top picks this year Carola. Here's my 3, though I want to pick 5 or 6. Numbers 3, 4, and 14. But 6 and 8 are great too. Happy T day Carola. hugs-Erika
Some totally gorgeous images. As always.
3,6, 13. Though I could have included rather a lot of other photos.
I love your mug with treats-that had me smiling. wow I can see how hard it must have been to choose just these fifteen for your giveaway, as this was really difficult for me to now choose three. thank you for the chance
I really loved the first photo too but I am going with 14 15 and 7 Happy T Carola hugs Kathy
Och, die arme Eule!
Es war wunderschön, dich durch das Jahr so zu begleiten!
1, 7, 13? Ist eigentlich gemein, nur 3 wählen zu dürfen ;-)
Your photos are all beautiful! I wouldn't want to choose any among them as I like them all. The variety of places and subjects is very pleasing.
I hope you have the opportunity to take photos in many more of your diverse places in 2023.

Wonderful photos, I like them all! But 3, 6 and 11 are my faves. Have a great week, I am back in the clinic again but it's nice here! Hugs, Valerie
4, 9, 11 - viele liebe Grüße zu dir. Ich wünsche dir und deinen Lieben ein frohes 2023. Freude, Glück, Zufriedenheit. Yes, und eine tolle Reise oder zwei. Ich freue mich darauf, mehr zu sehen in deinem Blog. Hug Viola
It looks like you were hungry, Carola, and took a bite out of the mug! As for the pictures, I choose 6, 7 and 12. I could easily have selected any of them and not been disappointed. Hugs - David
Das sind wirklich wunderschöne Fotos, liebe Carola, und die Wahl fällt schwer. Aber ich habe mich spontan entschieden für Bild 3, 4 und 7 :-)
Ich habe übrigens auch eine Lieblingstasse mit einer "Abplatzung"... (Tja, manches, das man liebt, wird eben auch ziemlich strapaziert ;-))
Was du über Costa Rica und Zahnbehandlungen schreibst, klingt für mich garnicht so sehr nach Witz. Von hier aus fahren wir nach Ungarn für größere Zahnbehandlungen. Auf die Idee, Costa Rica damit zu kombinieren, hätten wir natürlich auch kommen können ;-DD
Ich wünsche dir und deinen Liebsten viel Glück und Gesundheit im neuen Jahr! 🥂🍀😌
Alles Liebe, Traude

This is way too difficult, Carola! I wish to change my slection, please - 3, 7 and 15 are my revised choices. I promise not to do it again!
11, 13, and 15 are my favorites, though it was hard to pick. Please don't include me in the drawing, though, as I no longer "do" snail mail and somebody else will benefit more from your generosity :)
Happy T Tuesday!
Hi Carola!!! ,
What a great GiveAway! Very difficult to narrow it down but i choose .. 13, 14, 15... Number 6 tickles my fancy too..lol Happy First T day of the New Year! Hugs! deb
1, 3 and 4. All your photos are beautiful, it was difficult to choose just 3 😊. Happy New Year and wishing you a very Happy T Day too! Hugs Jo X
You don't make it easy, do you? My vote is 5, 12, and 13 -- but it's a tough call!
Happy New Year Carola! Loved all your photos from last year, really enjoyed seeing them each week. My choices are 1,6,15. 1 reminds me of my dad who was a keen fisherman, I love the bird on the top of the stones in 6 and 15, well I do love a frosty garden pic! Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx
These natural sceneries are just superb. The lake and backlit photos are fantastic
All the photos are just beautiful. But 2, 4, and 8 are my favorites. You choose well my friend. Have a very lovely evening.
4, 7, 12, before I forget. I don't remember playing this game before. Fun. The photos are all amazing! Those waffle cookies look delicious. Happy T Day.
if I can update I meant 6 instead of 7 the bird on the stones thanks
Hallo Carola,
ich schaue mir ja das ganze Jahr über gerne deine Fotos an. Es fällt schwer, aus diesen 15 Fotos 3 auszuwählen, da mir eigentlich alle gut gefallen. Ich habe mich nun spontan für die Nr. 6, 12 und 15 entschieden.
Das Vögelchen habe ich gewählt, weil ich weiß, wieviel Glück man haben muss, so ein Foto zu schießen. Bild 12 passt zur derzeitigen Stimmung in der Kirche und Bild 15 gefällt mir einfach von den Farben und dem Gegenlicht.
Alles Gute für dich und deine Familie fürs neue Jahr!
LG

Happy New Year! Beautiful photos. So hard to pick just three. 2, 6, 9 Your mug is very cute, too. Happy T Day
Gorgeous pics Carola
A new linky is at my blog now My festival ends tomorrow then for me its back to everyday blogging and linking
Much🌲love
For me, it is number 13
Oh my! There are some absolutely stunning photos here- it was so difficult to make a choice but after a lot of looking at them all I chose 4, 6 and 9.
I love your mug - and those waffle biscuits! Happy New Year, hugs, Chrisx
This is a generic copy and paste because I have so many I need to visit. I have been offline since early Tuesday morning. Not only did I lose internet and phone, I also lost heat and electricity. Thank goodness for extra blankets, layering, and two very warm fur babies. Just wanted you to know why you haven't heard from me.
I love that old mug and your stroopwafels. Not sure I should enter the giveaway, but I am CRAZY about your photos. My choices: 8, 9, 12. Of course, I like 6, too. But 8 is my favorite of them all.
This was difficult because all the the photos where wonderful ... but, my taste leans in the direction of nature so I chose #'s 2, 6 & 7. I struggled between #7 and #15. I am still oscillating between them, but I forced myself to make the decision. This is my first time here ... and such fun :)

Your photographs are all beautiful and I enjoyed seeing them, thank you.
All the best Jan
