December 2021 - Radio City Christmas NYC
If you have your Picture This Photography NYC Calendar this is your December 2021 image “Radio City Christmas NYC”
Christmas in NYC is always a magical time, even when still living through a pandemic. The city comes to life and pulls out all of the stops from trees to lights to decorations and so much more.
Radio City Music Hall is always one of my favourite places to visit both inside and outside due to the grandeur Art Deco design & marquee signage. It is an entertainment venue in Midtown on 6th Avenue and 50th St & is home to The Rockettes. I love visiting for music events or The Christmas Show as the inside hosts a very majestic foyer and a lavish auditorium with incredible acoustics.
This image was captured early one Sunday morning before the sun came up (round 6:30am) or the city awoke. I love to capture iconic buildings in all their glory without the distractions of people in the shot or around me. I wanted to capture the cool blue & purple colours with the contrasting bold Red/White Art Deco signage.
This long exposure image was taken with a tripod from 1/2 block south on the pavilion that hosts the Christmas baubles as it creates interesting foreground and compliments the colour palette. I love the geometric aspect softened by the round bubbles and contrasting colours.
The holiday season is made even more enjoyable day or night with “Radio City Christmas NYC”
