Lady in Waiting
Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 10 December 2008 in Cityscape & Urban.
This is one of the Windows Displays at Lord and Taylors in NYC, they have some quite ornate displays but with windows reflections car lights etc there tricky to capture, but was happy with this one
Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it
Getting ready for a work trip from the 29th so may not be able to check all your posts but will do as and when I can

I love Holiday window displays. This is wonderful. I love the light here.
I'm hoping to get to NY next week to go to the boat show and then if all goes as planned, off to see some of the windows and of course Rockefeller Center.

Interestingly the parasol appears to be defying the laws of gravity.
Lovely warm tones

She's lovely - this is one of my favorite parts of the holday season - all the decorations and lights that warm up the cold season.

Its an amazing shot. It is as though the umbrella is about to fly from her hands.

How lovely this figurine stands with her parasole. Beautiful light and great find. Old fashion and holiday feel this has.

Beautifullly shot. Love the colours and composition. You've done so well for a window shot, too. I don't feel it's a big problem, but I would have burnt those bright highlights in a little bit. I feel they divert the viewer's eye too much. Still a great one!

The lighting is lovely, isn't it? Good job, shooting through the window without all the reflections!
