2016 05 17 Art Institute of Chicago (Modern Wing)

I couldn't resist having a play with this shot. I was standing on a balcony and used my fisheye lens. Converted to B&W in Nik Silver Efex. I liked the tiny black people. I was inspired by Andie's shots (@UKandie) although I don't think this is anywhere near her style.

Definitely best against black

Uploaded for my alternate album
@UKandie I was trying to get a similar feel to this shot having seen lots of yours taken in this museum. Not sure this is gritty enough?

Fantastic edit Pam.

What a great perspective using the fisheye. The sense of scale is powerful in this edit

Absolutely wonderful, Pam! I'm still filling miserable little bits into the final days before we set out for Chicago! I can't wait to get started on the really fun stuff! As you were inspired by Andie, I think I'll use one I took, looking down the same hall, as it became a favourite of mine...

In my final days in California, I took only about 20 images a day Woah is me when we land in Chicago and I began making new friends! (This morning I just unpacked my swaps from you and Donna... they'll -eventually- become part of a collage...)
