George Sheldon’s Holiday Spirit Shines on WorldAtlas

Lights, laughter, and a little bit of snow — that’s the magic of Pennsylvania’s downtowns during the holidays. And I’m proud to share that my photography has been featured in WorldAtlas’s latest article: “Pennsylvania’s 8 Most Festive Downtowns for the Holidays.”

From Bellefonte’s Victorian Christmas to the dazzling displays in Lititz and Bethlehem, this piece captures the joy and nostalgia of small-town celebrations. My images help showcase the twinkling storefronts, cheerful crowds, and timeless traditions that make these towns sparkle during the season.

It’s more than just holiday décor — it’s about community, warmth, and the stories behind each wreath and window. As a photographer, I aim to freeze those fleeting moments: a child’s wonder at a parade, a couple strolling hand-in-hand under glowing lights, or the quiet beauty of a snow-covered street.

Being part of this feature means a lot. It’s a chance to share the spirit of Pennsylvania with readers around the world — and to remind us all that the holidays are best celebrated with heart, heritage, and a touch of hometown magic.
