New York Series #2
Nicole was born in NYC, but hasn't been back to visit since her college days. My visits were always very focused with little time for exploration. Consequently, once we arrived and settled into our apartment, any definite plans were disregarded to fulfill the simple desire to walk around and drink in the atmosphere.
Starting from the apartment on 98th and Madison, we started walking south, glaring up at every architectural wonder and into every shop window that was glamorously decorated for the holiday season. The design of each display was remarkable; from clothing to jewelry to specialty shops, the style behind each presentation was a step above anything I had ever seen before.

Naturally, my camera was drawn to polar bears frolicking in the window.


This closeup of a hanging ornament display barely captures the elaborate Christmas decorations many of the windows boasted.
