Hi F&F,
It’s been a wonderfully busy schedule for me this week. Unfortunately, that means I didn’t have much time to focus on this week’s photo challenge, but fear not, dear readers; I think I have managed to pull something out of my ass hat that satisfies the assignment; just in the nick of time.
The photo below may look a little familiar to those who have been following this blog. I posted a similar shot in the slide show that accompanied my trip report post; Ten + One Marvelous Things About Minneapolis, Minnesota.
My entry was taken at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. They have an impressive collection. I was, equally, impressed with all the windows in the museum. I became fascinated with the shadows created as sun streamed through a particular multi-paned window in a staircase. I took a series of color and black and white pictures; from many different angles. The photo below is one in the series; taken that day at the museum.
The original image was in color and then it was altered using the Windows Live Photo Gallery editing tools. I used the black and white effect called cyan tone to give the shot that cool monochromatic appearance. I like it very much and I think I will experiment with the other editing tools in the program.
Peace,

Very COOL!
That’s excellent!
I very like the composition.
Your eyes are litteraly dragged away by the the light on the right wall!
Hi Jbheronneau,
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I think it is an interesting shot on its own, but experimenting with the photo editing really enhanced it.
I took many many shots that day. I think the security officer at the museum thought I was odd for spending 15 minutes taking pictures of a wall.; not to mention the weird contortions I was doing to get different angles.
Peace,

Beautiful… like something you’d see in Architectural Digest.
Thank you so much. It’s a huge complement to have the photo likened to the outstanding images you see in that magazine.
