This was a common scene in Union Square this winter season: colorful lights, heavy snow, open air spectacles and iceskating, and a lot of people gathering there. Now the school vacation is over and the municipality is going to turn off the lights soon.

Carol singers

In this picture, taken on the last days of 2009, a group of young colindatori (carol singers) have a photo session in a busy snowy intersection, before going to a school winter celebration. Even if not wearing these folk costumes, small groups of colindatori knock on the doors through the city's neighborhoods to sing their carols from Christmas Eve to January 1.
