A somewhat whimsical view of the interior of San Francisco MOMA through a portal
When I visit museums I often bring a camera along. I’m not too likely to photograph the art — though that does occasionally happen, most often when someone is interacting with it. I’m more interested in the light and architecture of such places and with the activities of museum visitors, who tend to behave in different ways than they might in other locations.
This photograph is about the architecture, of course, and how it is lit. quite simply, the portal (outlined in black) was my initial subject, but then I saw the fantastic landscape of light gradients and contrasting colors. The two figures in the nearly central light circle were a matter of serendipity.
