Hello Craig,
Maybe Brenda showed this, but I really don't remember seeing this amazing "sculpture" before. I wonder if it's permanently placed here. You might have added it was made by Jeff Koons, who is quite famous for this kind of sculptures. I posted one of his works I saw in a museum in Porto of The Hulk, which looked inflatable but was actually made of bronze. This is very kitschy, in a deliberate way, but it's so over the top that it's really beautiful.
Best regards,
Gert

Hi Craig,
An imposing photo of this giant 3D cartoon character. The sculpture appears huge from your point of view, as indeed it is. If it was a small statuette it would be pretty kitsch, but at this scale it becomes surreal. The line of flags at the bottom is a nice and colorful touch.

Hi Craig,

The flags are eyecatching. The point of view is showing the details of the sculpture of the Seated Ballerina. The light is enhancing the colors. Have a nice day.

Hi Craig,
With this angle and background it would be impossible to guess the size of this piece of art. That shiny material looks really good. And patchy light created by window reflections looks good on the walls too. Excellent angle.

Hello Craig,
What a nice surprise, and what a great photo! I really like this POV. The ballerina looks so wistful and real. I also like the flags at her feet. I do have a photo of her in my gallery, taken from the opposite direction. (on page six in case anyone would like to view it!) Waiting to see what you post next... Take care!

Hello Craig,
2017 was a year when we didn't visit New York (we were in Vancouver after all :-)), so we missed this inflatable ballerina. You captured her from an excellent angle and used the iconic architecture of Rockefeller Center as a great backdrop.

Bonjour, cher Craig,
Voilà une ballerine qui prend de la hauteur, et, pourtant, elle ne fait pas les pointes ! ;o)
Impressionnant et original.
Amitiés.

Hi Craig
Excellent intro, soulless but she is very special, well spotted and framed. Good urban shot especially the beautiful range of colours. Well done
Best regards

Hello Craig,
Thanks to the many flags I recognised the square in front of the Rockefeller Building but I cannot remember seeing the Seated Ballerina.
A very elegant 'statue'.
Good choice of point of view and excellent composition.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Craig
Why do I think of Cinderella's dazzling glass shoes and the mishap when she left the ballroom in a hurry!!
Thanks for this beautiful view on fantasia.
Cheers
