If you are using another browser:
Click on the graphic you want to download. This will load a new page containing that image only. You should then be able to choose a Save option from your browser’s menu.

Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved shaking those holiday glass globes to make the “snow” within swirl and dance. I hope you like my interpretation of these classic Christmas ornaments, either still or animated. Warning: the larger of the two animated GIFs devours bandwidth at about 44K. If you're concerned about loading time on your Web pages, stick to the smaller animation or use the larger image in its still version (about 21K).

My thanks to the Animated GIF Artists Guild for their recognition of my animated snow globe graphic in the Guild’s Third Animated GIF Competition (judged in January 1997). This was my first award on the Web, and I’m quite proud of it — especially since the snow globe is one of my personal favorites of all the holiday graphics I’ve created and posted to this site since November 1995.
