Not sure I can compete with the snowy loveliness on offer this month so I'll just go for my own favorite that I've taken.
This was taken on the beach somewhere between Easington and Hordon on the Durham coast in the moments before sunrise on the 1st of December. The editing was minimal.

Not a lot to choose from this month, and certainly nothing with either snow or sun, just a still autumnal view of the Pentlands.

The Howe, Loganlea Reservoir and Castlelaw Hill on a very overcast afternoon, 28 December 2013.
