World in a glass Ball

This post will cover two challenges Beautiful Sunday hosted by @ace108, and Sublime Sunday, created and hosted by @c0ff33a,
Quite a few people seem to like the shots I have been doing with the Glass ball that I have So I thought I would share a few more shots with it in this post, I think there's a chance someone may see one or more of these shots as beautiful, but I think there's more of a chance some may find some of the shots Sublime :)

Now I myself like to try and see the beauty in everything and every one and do not equate beauty to value or external looks when it comes to people I think that the real beauty is the beauty within a person's heart and soul, not just on the external looks.
Now that said there are no photos of people in this post, but thinking of these shots with images caught inside a crystal ball, came to mind as I was preparing these photos for this post, OK I have waffled enough onto the shots.

This first shot is taken of the Information booth and clock in the main concourse in Grand Central terminal

Now someone asked me is it hard to get these types of shots fo=cusinginthe center of the ball, and to a degree it is especially when like for these ones your trying to hold the ball at the right position with one hand and at the same time adjust the focus on the camera and the settings to get the shot.
Of course, it would be easier if I had the camera on a tripod but I am too lazy to bother with carrying a tripod into the city on the train most days and secondly in many places in the city including Grand Central you will get told to move along if you try and setup a tripod.
Another option would be to sit the glass ball on something so you don't have to hold it, but so far in most places where I have tried it there is nothing to sit it on, I am trying to think of an easier way to have it and also so my hand isn't in the shots but haven't come up with a way yet.
OK waffling again back to the photos this next shot is also in Grand Central and I played around with the edit of this one as you no doubt will notice

And incase you are wondering yes I did get odd looks from people holding up a glass ball and my Camera while in Grand Central Terminal :)

So some have said I should do a selfie now and again so here goes :)
