Description

Nearly a thousand black and white photos by Teenie Harris are on display at Pittsburgh's Carnegie Museum of Art. Teenie was a famed photographer for the Pittsburgh Courier newspaper. Because of limited funds and limited film, he was known for taking just "one shot" at events. This woman was one of many admiring his work.

It reminds me of the GP a few years back of a cat sitting in about the same spot looking at paintings. I forget who shot it. Our museum in OKC wouldn't let me shoot anything in there except for the Chihuly exhibit. #10042929

You are permitted to shoot in certain exhibits at The Carnegie, but no tripods. I guess we're fortunate.
