O, Christmas tree: Flickr photo of the day

Serg Klimenko, a member of the Yahoo Travel Flickr photo group, recently took this festive shot in Odessa, Ukraine. Odessa is a historic city, transportation hub and warm-water port on the northwest coast of the Black Sea. The city is known for its Mediterranean-style architecture and its cosmopolitan mix of Russian, Ukrainian, Jewish and European cultural influences. It's also long been a travel destination for those who live in colder climates to the north.
