Wordless Wednesday: The Rockefeller Center Holidays 2012 Edition {#Photos} #NewYorkCity


All things in and around Rockefeller Center in New York City during Holidays 2012! It's one of the most famous holiday trees and I've been visiting the new tree every year since I was a kid!

Mama Butterfly got inspired and took this creative shot of the tree. I only wish it had been at night so you could really see all the lights!

I have passed this every time I've been in the Rockefeller Center area and never took a picture of it, so I thought I'd snap a pic of it, which I had to do in three shots, see below for what's alongside this on the left and the right! It reads: Wisdom and Knowledge Shall Be The Stability of Thy Times!

I can't believe I've passed this every day and never really stopped to get a good look or a pic until this year!

Even though that's not the happiest face I wanted to get a picture of all three of them, I tried to get them into one shot but the detail would have gotten lost so I seperated them out!


Toy Soldier Rockefeller Center Holidays 2012 WATERMARKED
Nabbing this one wasn't easy because of all the foot traffic, but after a few tries, I finally got a shot that I absolutely LOVE!


Rockefeller Center Gold Statue 01 Holidays 2012 WATERMARKED
This statue of Prometheus at Rockefeller Center in New York City is one of the most photographed statues in New York City, especially at this time of year!

Look Up Rockefeller Center Holidays 2012 WATERMARKED
I wonder what Message Mercury brings today?


Rockefeller Center from my vantage point by the angels 01 WATERMARKED
After a long day in the city, a quick rest stop, I liked the perspective of the Angels in front of the tree so I took a shot. There is a special shot from this day I left out from this post for a reason, so there is one more picture from my Rockefeller Center Holiday Tree 2012 that is to come! Stay tuned!
 

Happy Wordless Wednesday Butterflies! Don't forget to post your WW posts as a comment on this thread so we can see your pictures too!

    1. @Big Happy Buddha - There really is something magical to all those lights and being in New York City at Christmas. While I love travel, there is nothing like home for the holidays. I can't imagine being anywhere else during Christmas!
