Glass Knives Are Suspended In Front Of A Red Stack Tower At The Corning Museum Of Glass

The Wild Images Team Spent a couple of days in Corning, New York. One of the biggest attractions is the Corning Museum of Glass. A visit there is easily an all day event, and really it is highly recommended to split it over multiple days as there is so much to see (and photograph!). We spent hours in each of the sections, and we need to return as soon as possible as we felt it was not enough time to see and read about everything. The museum houses over 50,000 glass objects of various shapes sizes, and colors from all over the world. Amazingly, the museum collection even contains some manmade glass objects that are almost 4000 years old! Some of the glass objects are works of art, others have functional designs, and many are somewhere in between. In this image, a set of glass knives are suspended by thin lines in one of the many large galleries there. To further compose the shot, we moved to a viewpoint where the glass knives are suspended in front of a red stack tower, which of course is also made entirely out of glass. The Wild Images Team has captured many other photos throughout New York such as in the Corning Museum of Glass antique cruets and dishware overlap, then in New York City itself the sudden snow squall over the Garment District, the scene of the Sherry-Netherland towering over a sculpture, and the opposite directed festive view of West 58th Street, each of which is available for sale in our store. Our New York blog posts document the Corning Museum of Glass plate of colorful giant glass fruit, the intricate stained glass vines and bubbles over a figure, and the suspended glass knives in front of a red stack tower, then in New York City itself the Empire State Building shining like a beacon, the perpetual hustle and bustle of Times Square, the impressive bronze Alice in Wonderland sculpture, the memorial bronze statue of legendary Balto and its accompanying dedicated to the indomitable spirit plaque, the animated bronze animals and the Delacorte Clock, The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina with Spongebob SquarePants, the festive view of a large toy train in Rockefeller Center Station, the late night giant holiday lights on the sidewalks, and the piles of giant holiday ornaments in Liholts Pooley Pool. In nearby Pennsylvania, The Wild Images Team has captured many other photos including the postgame fireworks over the Andy Warhol Bridge, the colorful bursts of Independence Day fireworks over the Ohio River, the view as delicate flowers bloom in the Laurel Highlands, and the very early lantana at the University Park Flower Gardens, each of which is available for sale in our store. Our blog posts from Pennsylvania have documented the Halloween moment when hundreds of witches converged on Mellon Park and then later performed a choreographed dance routine, when The Wild Images Team attended an interfaith wedding ceremony during which our Coordinator Christina Orban was a bridesmaid, a look inside of the ornate St. Vincent Archabbey Basilica, the side yard greenhouse vividly reflecting light displays, the scene dominated by vibrant strands of holiday lights on a tree, the many hues of a very festive holiday house along McColly Street, the colorful view of the Bellefonte Historical Railroad Fall Foliage Train, the burst trails of fireworks over the Allegheny River, the red, white, and blue trail fireworks over the Roberto Clemente Bridge, the palette of colors with fireworks bursting over the Ohio River, the hundreds of American flags flying over Blairsville Cemetery, the fall leaves surrounding the Tyrone Division of the Pennsylvania System World War I Monument, the many colors of a flower soaking up sunshine, and the dichotomy created by a floral battle of yellow versus red.
