FarmVille Pic of the Day: Christmas takes to the sky on Brayzdin's farm

Happy holidays, players! [Brayzdin][4] has done it again with another fantastically, fantastical [FarmVille][5] farm. He didn't just build a Christmas tree; he built a ginormous tree made out of trees, and even uses trees for the trimming. The tree's body is home to a large variety of FarmVille trees, but the trimming is clearly formed by rows of the inexpensive Plum Trees, while Silver Bell Trees (a red, white, and blue 2011 [Winter Holiday][6] premium) masquerade as tree ornaments. _[Rockerfeller][7], eat your heart out._

But Brayzdin also likes depth in his farm designs, and this one uses a few tricks to make the center of the farm resemble a deep ravine. To the right is a cliff with rocky sides built out of fences, just like one from [last week][8]. Another cliff is built on the left, but this one is topped with the clever use of [Modern Benches][9] to mimic floating railroad tracks. (Brayzdin used this trick before, in his [Castle in the Sky farm][10].) Riding on the red floating track is the [Wild West][11] train set, while beneath it, another optical trick makes it look like the [Evergreen Train][12] is chugging below.

Finally, in the spacious 'sky' above, Brayzdin populated the farm with hot air balloons from the [Haiti "School of Choice" charity][13], [FarmVille's First Birthday][14], and [1 Million Fans Anniversary Weekend][15]. There's also the [AVG Biplane][16], [Balloon Gnome][17], Duke's Airship (from the [English Countryside][18] event), and a [Gold Sleigh][19] that looks like Santa's cause Brayzdin set a group of [Reindeer][20] in front of it.
