NYc alone at night-wow!

After the shoot on Saturday, I took a cab up to Nelson’s restaurant (Uncle Jack’s Steak House). As soon as I got in the cab, I apologized profusely to the driver…his restaurant is on 56th between 5th and 6th. That’s right near the heart of the Christmas craziness- the tree is on 50th and 5th. The driver was not particularly pleased with me. I gave him a good tip though, so he loosened up by the end.

Nelson’s restaurant is so beautiful. I wish he wasn’t so busy so I could’ve hung out a little longer (longer than the 5 minutes I was there) and taken some pictures in there. After leaving him, I decided to walk leisurely alone toward the tree to take some shots at night. Walked up 5th avenue, which is very christmasy in itself, saw the tree (again), saw them filming the opening to that America’s Choir show at Rockefeller Center, some street music too. But man….it was freeeeeeeezing. Couldn’t feel my face after a few blocks. So while I had good intentions of walking all the way back to Penn Station, I wimped out and grabbed another cab at around 42nd and 5th back to Penn. Made it 10 minutes before the train home. Good timing and a good time. God knows when the next time will be that I will have a chance to walk around NYC alone!

1. A model with a s***load of diamonds around her neck at Harry Winston.

2. The snowflake on 5th.

3. Fendi with it’s sparkly belts. Cool, huh?

4. The "bell ringer". He had to be labeled cause the fact that he’s standing in the middle of 5th Ave ringing a bell, isn’t enough of a give away as to what it is that he does. Ya know, just in case you were confused. Glad I had the camera for this one!

5. Cartier- also all sparkly. Inside and outside.

6. St. Patricks at Night. Love this one.

7. (up on top) the musical snowflakes outside of Saks. I caught them right in time for the music part which I was glad about cause we missed that on Friday.

8.the tree at night. Great view, but those damn photographers who charge to take your picture were STILL in my way.

9. Grand Central and the Chrysler Building- the chrysler bldg is my absolute favorite bldg in nyc.

Sorry, I know the pictures are sorta out of order, but most of you people are NY’ers, so you can figure it out!
