| Rockefeller Center Christmas tree 2018 New York |
2020 is winding down, and I sit at home after one of the quietest Christmas's in my life. (Thanks, Pandemic.) Since I traveled little this year, I'm sharing more photos from my 2018 New York City trip. I loved the Christmas decorations and window displays I saw. It was the only time I had been to New York City in December.
 |
| NYC Liholts Pooley Pool Ornament Display |
The Liholts Pooley Pool / fountain on 6th Ave (Avenue of the Americas) gets decorated each December with oversized ornaments, and is located near the Radio City Music Hall.
 |
| New York Ornament Display near Radio City Music Hall |
The 5+ story tree decoration up the side of Radio City changes colors, changing the reflections in the water as well.
 |
| New York City Light Display |
Another light display near the Radio City Music Hall featured 3 blue Reindeer. (Notice the Radio City Sign at the far right)
 |
| New York Saks building Christmas Display |
One block East on 5th Avenue the Saks building has a beautiful multi-story light display. The designers create a different castle "look" each year.
 |
| New York Saks building and Angel |
The lights and colors on Saks castle change quickly with a light and sound show coordinated to music...
 |
| 2018 Saks Building and Angels |
A line of Angels decorates a pedestrian corridor between the Saks building and the Rockefeller Center ice rink where the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree stands.
(This shot was taken after a rain around 11:30pm, shortly before they turned off the lights on the Rockefeller Center tree to make people go away. Photographers-be aware of the timing.)
 |
| NYC Rockefeller Christmas Tree and Angels |
This photo looks down the center of the pedestrian walkway towards the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree.

The
Rockefeller Christmas Tree above the ice Rink glows brighter than this
photo shows, and the entire area seems filled with energy.

The photo above of the top half of the tree is my best attempt to recreate the colors and impact of the actual tree. (Yes, this shot is overexposed.)
 |
Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree day before Lighting
|
The evening before the Rockefeller Center Tree lighting ceremony I was able to take this photo over the ice rink, but I wasn't able to get this angle once the tree was lit.
 |
Anthropologie Window Display
|
The nearby window displays where stunning as well. The Anthropologie window display was just beautiful. It used 3D paper craft to create a forest scene with birch trees, evergreens and forest animals.
 |
| 2018 Anthropologie Christmas Window Display |
I loved the way the woodland animals and birds were drawn.

|
The simple paper cutouts for the foliage were fantastically assembled.

The paper artist in me was entranced by the simplicity and the impact of the designs.

I hope to use the ideas I saw to inspire some of my creations.

Look at the beauty of the simple line art above and be inspired.

FAO Schwartz Window Display - JOY
|
A nearby FAO Schwartz window display sparkled with seasonal JOY. Again, simplicity can be stunning.
 |

|
Another Christmas Window display referenced the Chrysler Building's Art Deco lines.

Above is a free Christmas desktop Background / Wallpaper I made using the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas
and a
A Very Happy New Year !

Here is a fun puzzle game of my New York Photo:
Fantastic photos! Thanks for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2020/12/going-buggy.html
ReplyDeleteWOW! Love the fabulous photos!
ReplyDeleteWishing you and your family a wonderful year ahead.
Looks so festive with the decorations. Blessings for a healthy, happy, and safer 2021.
ReplyDeleteLove your fabulous photos, Jeanne!
ReplyDeleteHealthy and Happy New Year, darling.
Hugs from Spain
They sure know how to get into the Christmas spirit! Fabulous lights and decorations. The foxes are just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteA fantastic addition to 'My Corner of the World' this week! May the new year bring you great things to photograph!
New York certainly knew how to impress! All he captures you took are very attractive and opulant, but the wild Christmas tree takes the crown! Wonder how big those red balls are... Anthropologie used to be one of my favorite clothing stores when I lived in California. Haven't seen it here yet in Texas. Hope All Seasons gets to see more of you, even if you don't have opulant things to show, Jeannie - you are missed:):) Wishing you all the best for2021. Hope the coming year will b easier on all of us! Jesh
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures. It all looks so festive. Thanks for sharing. I hope you have a very Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI love visiting New York so I just had to see your pics. Beautiful. Visiting you from the link up on the edge. laurensparks.net

ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful photos! There is nothing quite like New York City all lit up for the holidays! Hopefully, you will get back for future Christmases! Thanks for sharing and linking with me. Wishing you all the best in the new year.

Your photos are exceptional. My husband is from NYC originally, and we used to visit four times a year. I miss it!
ReplyDeleteIt's always so pretty at night!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots.
ReplyDeleteWow, what lovely photos! I have never been to New York, but hopefully one day I might see all this for myself. Thanks for the armchair travelogue!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love NYC at Christmastime. Thank you for sharing at Party In Your PJ's.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post!! My son and DIL usually go to NYC every year to see the Tree...Last year, they stayed for a few days and were able to see 3 Broadway shows. They hope to be able to go this year for Christmas, Hopefully, things will be better by then....Tanks so much for stopping by!!
ReplyDeleteStay safe, healthy and happy!!
Hugs
Debbie
Such beautiful captures.

Beautiful pictures. I have many fond memories of Rockefeller Center at Christmas. As a native New Yorker, it was a yearly tradition. Sad to say, I no longer live in the City and would not feel safe going back there.
ReplyDeleteThese brings back so many good memories of New Years Eve 2015 when I visited New York for the first time. We saw the Rockettes at Radio City and it was so magical! #KCACOLS
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Jeanne!
ReplyDeleteI have never been to New York City at Christmas but I was there in 1981 during summer and enjoyed walking all over the city with friends from the Germany-USA exchange student program I was on (at the time). Great shots and wow, the papercraft of the Anthropologie windows is amazing!!! I saved several photos to my Animal Friends and Road Trip (Travel) boards. :) I tried to pull in a photo to feature at this past week's Share Your Style, but I wasn't able to do so. It might be the copyright protection, but I am happy that you shared with us and I hope a few people hopped over to see your amazing photographs and the City all lit up!
Big hugs for a good 2021,
Barb :)
What gorgeous photos! I miss NYC - especially at Christmas. #AnythingGoes
