The Corning Museum of Glass is a highly recommended place to visit. It was founded in 1951 by Corning Glass Works, now known as Corning, Inc. Yes, this is the company well known for its Corningware product line, as well as Corelle and Pyrex, items found in many homes around the world. They also are involved in many other technical application products such as display screens on some of the most popular cell phone and television models. Their passion for creating and appreciation for glassware goes beyond just these products, and the museum displays a 3500 year history of glassmaking with objects collected from throughout the world. On one of the days we visited there, The Wild Images Team found this highly reflective glass globe in one of the many display cases, next to a glass plate depicting the 1893 World’s Fair. We loved the way it reflected all of the very colorful glassware on the shelf above it, so we took some time to capture photos of it. Since there was no way to photograph it and at the same time not be reflected in the globe, our Photographer, Jeremy, is captured in action while taking this picture. 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.
