NYC’s Thanksgiving Day Parade From Above
Tip: navigate using the ← left and right → arrow keys Brooklyn-based photographer Navid Baraty has become pretty well-known for shooting photos of New York City from high above. On Thanksgiving her caught a bird’s eye view of one of the most iconic parades in the United States, Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Baraty told MyModernMet.com, ”I shot them from the roof of a 30-story building along 6th Avenue at 37th Street, it was so amazing to watch the parade from above. I grew up watching the parade on Thanksgiving morning with the family and it was my first time seeing it in person. It’s crazy how small it all seemed from high above when you’re so used to seeing how giant the balloons look on TV that appear to be towering up into the buildings. It was also pretty cool to be able to see the whole line of floats and balloons coming down 6th Avenue all the way up to the southern edge of Central Park.” Source: MyModernMet.com

Empire State Building Lights Go LED, Changing NYC Skyline Forever
This morning at midnight, 11/26/12, The Empire State Building changed its flood lights to LED lights, forever changing the night time skyline of New York City. In 1964, floodlights were added to illuminate the top of the building at night, in colors chosen to match seasonal and other events. When the lights went live at midnight, they did so to the music of Alicia Keys’ new album which, you guessed it, also drops today. Some see the addition as an insult to the classic look, others see it as an innovative step other major cities have already made. The key word is progress. Keys’ album drop show was the exception, but I completely disagree with having civilians pay to have a special light catastrophe in their individual honor. It takes away from the ubiquitous influence of unity those lights held for so many years. On special occasions, like New Years Eve at midnight or the Yanks winning the world series, a good light show on top of NYC’s most famous building could be called for, other than that, leave the light shows to Broadway.
