As the world grieves with France in the wake of Friday’s attacks in Paris, some world landmarks were illuminated in France’s national colors as a show of sympathy. The Empire State Building, which is often lit in the USA’s colors of red, white and blue, dimmed its lights: http://usat.ly/1RVgqDe

Color us enchanted. It’s hard to believe that fall has already come, but we’re happy it’s here.

These stunning photos of New York in February almost make us like winter.

…Almost. 

Here’s New York City as you’ve never seen it before.

Vincent Laforet's “Air” (or “Gotham 7.5K”) photo shoot has resulted in some of the most incredible, larger-than-life images of the Big Apple in years, becoming an overnight sensation.

Laforet — a filmmaker and photographer — packed his multiple decades of “photo mission” experience (and some serious photo gear) into a helicopter and soared to 7,500 feet—just above jetliners landing at JFK, LGA, and Newark airports. Secured in a body harness, he actually hung out of the helicopter at altitude to capture these images.

More about these amazing images.

Something to keep in mind as accumulation piles up in the Northeast. 

This is the view from the top of the Empire State Building right now. White-out conditions have begun.
