Photographer’s Note

In Baltimore they call it the "Miracle on 34th Street," but it's really a Christmas-time Cinderella story, where a plain, even homely, block in this old mill neighborhood transforms itself into a flamboyant Christmas fantasyland. In its annual metamorphosis from drab to luminous, the 700 block of 34th Street in the Hampden section of the city turns into "the Christmas Street," an over-the-top communal expression of holiday cheer and neighborly spirit, that has grown into a major tourist attraction.

I wish I could have uploaded this one before the 24th, unfortunately I couldn't. Anyway I wish a happy new year to all friends in TE.. and to Hannah and her dear parents and to Toros also. Thanks to Hannah for taking us to this dreamlike street though it was so late and so cold that night, and to Toros for co-piloting her with his usual map on his knees.:)

Baltimore 34. Cadde, Christmas zamanı ışıklandırmalarıyla ünlü. Normal zamanda evlerin bulunduğu herhangi bir mahalle olan bu cadde, yılbaşına doğru, büyük bir değişime uğruyor, ve ışıl ışıl, süsler ve renkler içinde bir cümbüşe dönüşüyor. Natalie Wood'un ünlü "The miracle on 34th street" filmini de çağrıştırarak, böyle adlandırılıyor.

Yeni yılınızı kutlar, sağlık ve mutluluklar dilerim.
