A different view of the New Year's Eve Ball in Times Square. We were walking east along 42nd Street late one afternoon toward the end of our New York trip, and I happened to turn around and look up. I'm so glad I did! Please view as large as you can for extra detail and textures, since this is done in a painting style.

Here's a link for you to learn everything you ever wanted to know about the New Year's Eve Ball:

The Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Center in New York City. This shot was taken from across the street at Saks Fifth Avenue during our recent trip. The tree may appear to be gigantic in person but this photo may help to put things into perspective. :-)

Done in a painting style but because of the proportions, it's difficult to discern. Please view large for details.

"March of the Toy Soldiers" from the Radio City Rockettes' Christmas Spectacular show in New York City.

Thank you for all the comments on yesterday's "Ice Skating in Central Park" photo! I don't have the time like I used to for commenting and it makes me feel so guilty when all of you jump in with kind words about my work and I can't return the favor. But I do quickly run through the Dailies and do a thumbs-up as often as possible!

Trying out painting techniques on my Michigan trip photos from July. This is the chapel at Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio.

Really need to view large to appreciate the textures!

We tried to visit the main branch of the New York Public Library last Sunday while we were on vacation, but it's undergoing renovation. The landmark lions were sporting a blanket of snow, reminding me of the mask worn by the Phantom of the Opera!

A special Christmas ornament that's been in my family for several generations, made by my grandfather's sister-in-law many years ago. Can you imagine the patience it must have taken to create such exquisite details in something so tiny as an actual eggshell? Not to mention incredible eyesight!

Best viewed large!

At this time of year I think wistfully of family members who are no longer with us...My grandparents have been on my mind a lot lately, so this photo, though taken earlier in the month at my mother's house, seemed appropriate for today.

Wishing all my fellow Daily Smugmuggers a beautiful, blessed Christmas!

This one is completely out of character for me, almost abstract. We were walking east along 42nd Street yesterday and had just reached Bryant Park at 5th Avenue. I took this shot semi-accidentally by zooming in as far as my point & shoot would allow, but my subject -- the Chrysler Building which was about three-quarters of a mile away -- wasn't quite centered. The sun was hitting it just right, causing it to glow.

Because I'm using Jim's computer, I don't have access to my usual photo editing software, so this is pretty much straight out of the camera.

Opposite the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in New York City are gorgeous heralding angels. Saks is in the background -- the giant snowflakes are synchronized to music. At the moment this was taken, "Carol of the Bells" was playing.

I have loads more Christmas window display shots to share, as well as pictures taken at the  Rockettes' Radio City Christmas Spectacular show! :-)

We leave New York tomorrow afternoon. Sniffle, whine, sob.... But I'll be processing photos for a while so I hope no one is bored by the repetitive theme!

One of Santa's elves helps sort the mail. Part of Macy's 2009 Christmas window display in New York City. Taken December 16th, 2009.

We had a VERY full day, which culminated in meeting Hillary & Steve! They're both delightful as can be, and I'm certain Hillary will be posting photos soon. :-)
