  • Christmas 2009

    Christmas 2009Now it's Christmas again! This year I publish some photos of a traditional Christmas celebration around here. As a special twist I chose to be a bit unconventional and publish a photo of all the presents of the year. Thanks to all of you! Lots of useful stuff here for someone that is moving in a couple of days! :D

Rockefeller Center, National Museum of Natural History, Central Park, Museum of Modern Art, Times Square and Empire State Building are keywords for the day.
