Description
FAA WATERCOLOR MARK DOES NOT APPEAR ON FINAL SALES
While doing a photo shoot for a gentleman who hired me because he wanted to surprise his girlfriend by proposing to her on the ice rink at Rockefeller Center, he asked me to get there early to photograph some of the great holiday lights and Christmas decor the way only New York City can do it. He told me to look for him and since he could not ice skate he would be probably holding onto his girlfriend since she could ice skate. I put all my gear in my bag, put my ice skates on and got on the rink when the sun started to go down I the lights started to go on this view grabbed my attention, I knelt down on one knee and as the lights lit up the NYC Christmas Tree with the Star sitting high a top the tree and the Greek Statue having the golden lights on it I could not have asked for a better opportunity to get the great tall skyscraper, beautiful blue night time sky and the remarkable NYC Christmas Tree all in one shot and use the skaters in a silhouette format.
