Photo 1 -- New York City skyline with the Brooklyn Bridge in the
foreground, as seen from the Manhattan Bridge in Brooklyn. Taken
Christmas Day 2007.
Photo 2 -- A Christmas kaledioscope show, complete with Christmas music was projected throughout the arrivals hall of Grand Central Station on Christmas Day. You just had to stop and smile at the beauty and simplicity of it. People were dancing, children were watching with wonder and awe, and it was the most magical Christmas day.
Photo 3 -- Rockefeller Center decorated for Christmas. The whole city comes alive at Christmas time, and the positioning of these angels and the golden light illuminated under them, and the snowflakes suspended between the buildings gave the entire display a magical feeling.
Photo 4 -- An exhibit at St. Paul's Chapel that shows the unity experienced all over the world post-9/11. At that time, it didn't matter if you were Republican, Democrat, black or white -- we were all Americans on that day.
Photo 5 -- One of my favorite things about New York is the dichonomy that exists between old and new. The financial districtis is full massive skyscrapers, one rising above another, and in the middle of it, places like Trinity Church exist in the space place they have always been, preserving their own history.
Photo 6 -- A view of Manhattan from the beautiful gothic structure known as the Brooklyn Bridge. The foot path is one of the best ways to see the beauty of the skyline.
Photo 7 -- Two New York icons: the yellow cab and Bloomies. The corner of 59th and Lexington has been called the busiest in the world.
Photo 8 -- Lady Liberty continues to look foward and welcome "the tired, the poor, and the huddled masses yearning to breathe free" on Liberty Island.
Photo 9 -- If you want someone to see your show, product, movie, put it in Times Square. Once a haven for seedy characters, the Great White Way has become the home of Broadway shows and the most tourist infiltrated place in the city.
Photo 10 -- A metal created model created of Rockefeller Center sits in the courtyard, rising up next to the real thing.
