Egyptian Exhibition Room - Metropolitan Museum of Art

I absolutely love this room. I don't think I will ever tire of it nor will get sick of seeing it in pictures. Typically people take photos of the Temple of Dendur or the glass windows that encase the place, not typically this wall. But I found the lighting and the shadows very cool...it was night time at the Met and the place almost seemed...magical. The other side of this room, more people are familiar with... Remember this scene in When Harry Met Sally?

I could sit in this room for hours. And last month, I did...chatting with friends for about 2 hours here. This picture was taken then.

Hope you all are having a lovely weekend! :)
Lovely photo, is that water providing the reflection?

Don't think I saw this before. It's really freaking cool. How have you been? Getting colder out East?

@adambralston thanks, Adam! I have another version posted on my Flickr with just the trio on the right. I think I like this one more. Anyway, getting colder here on the east coast but today was almost 70F 😎

By the way, I think I like the "blurry" composition better from Oct 16, Flickr but the non-blurry is a good photo! Captures a certain mood very well.
