Good day to you all.<\/p>\n

Kaho-tan here (\uff20gsc_kahotan<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Christmas Day is finally upon us!<\/p>\n

My family actually celebrated yesterday, so Christmas for me is already over!<\/p>\n

However, it looks like things are just only starting to begin elsewhere in the world! (Gazes into the distance)<\/p>\n

Well…<\/p>\n

Prior to this, we solicited “2014 Winter Header Image” entries via Kaho’s Post Office!<\/p>\n

\u21d2\u3000\u3010Enter Now!\u3011Winter Twitter Header Image & Live Webcast Info etc.<\/a><\/p>\n

And we received a whole lot of entries!<\/p>\n

Thank you all so much!\u00a0 (Bows deeply)
\nI made an announcement today via Twitter as well, but the Christmas themed header that I’ll be using both today and tomorrow will be this photo by Luka! \u266a<\/b><\/p>\n

There’s nothing more wintery than Christmas! Rin-chan once again wanted to wait up to meet Santa this year, but it looks like sleep got the better of her…<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

That’s just too adorable!! <\/b>\u03b5=(\uff61\u30fb\u0434\u30fb\uff61)<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

And the Nendoroid Dress-Up Pajamas were just perfect for this situation\u2665\ufe0e<\/p>\n

But that’s not all!<\/p>\n

From the day after Christmas, I’ll be using this photo by Leonoph as the header image.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On my way to the Winter Wonder Festival in February of this year, I took a photo of this special attack.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

Even with her pouty face, Snow Miku is just so cute<\/b>\u2665\ufe0e<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

There was a big snow storm that Wonder Festival… I hope the weather is better next year…!<\/p>\n

All of the photos we received were truly spectacular, so narrowing it down to these few entries was really hard work…!<\/b><\/p>\n

Thank you all again so very much!!<\/p>\n

Today we’ll be taking a look at a few more of the entries that were received.\u266a<\/p>\n

* I’ve adjusted the brightness of some of these images before posting them.<\/p>\n

It very rarely snows in Chiba Prefecture, so realizing that this was my chance I ran outside and got to shooting.\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

But naturally, since it was snowing outside, it was so cold that my shutter hand was shivering – lol.<\/p>\n

I’d also like to thank Miku for holding up in the cold weather as my model.<\/p>\n

Handle Name:\u00a0 Yukikon<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Miku’s excitedly running around in the snow\u2606<\/span><\/p>\n

I want to play with her in the fluffy snow, too \u30fd(*\u30fb\u03c9\u30fb)\u4eba(\u30fb\u03c9\u30fb*)\u30ce<\/p>\n

My piano was always in the perfect lighting XD so I took a picture of her with the piano. Which make sense because she\u2019s a singer!<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

To think that a picture of Magical Girl Snow Miku came from far-away Melbourne\u2661<\/span><\/p>\n

I love the way the lighting in the photo brings to mind a calm winter’s day \u266a<\/p>\n

Nothing says winter like “snow.”<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And if you’ve got snow, you’ve got “snow huts!”<\/p>\n

Here you can see a Nendoroid-size snow hut that I made.<\/p>\n

Nendoroids playing in the snow!\u00a0 At this size, I’d want to try making a snow hut, too\u266a<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 And I love how Sakura Miku is there, too\u2665\ufe0e<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Over here in Osaka, come winter a big duckie makes an appearance.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A duck you just can’t help but smile when you see.\u00a0 If you even have the chance, you should go see it at least once.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

I’ve seen this duck on the news a hundred times!

Thank you again so very much (\u00b4\u25a1\uff40\uff61)<\/p>\n

But on the other hand…<\/p>\n

Even if it isn’t looking wintery outside, maybe you plan to go look at some Christmas lights today or tomorrow…!<\/p>\n

Or you want to go out for a photo shoot over winter vacation…!<\/p>\n
