Hark the herald angels ....
Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 17 December 2008 in Cityscape & Urban.
Another shot from the area around the Rockerfeller centre
the title was going to be Hark the herald angles sing, but then thought there not singing and Hark the herald angels play or blow doesnt seem right ;)
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

Love the way the angels are illuminated, make them seem like real angels-- not that any of us have seen real angels before xD

These just get better and better, if there's one place I'd like to vist at Christmas time it's NY and it's all because of these pictures!
I might just have rotated slightly to straighten it a touch. I'm impressed at the depth for f3.5, looks clear at this res all the way through.
