Orpheus and little girl

Uploaded: May 29, 2003

Description

Indoors, with very slow shutter speed. Camera braced on edge of 2nd-floor balcony at Boston Museum of Fine Arts. Marble statue is Thomas Crawford's ''Orpheus and Cerebus'' (1843). Self-critique: Okay for an experiment. Not 100% perfect. I was trying to depict how the world might appear to a statue frozen in time. Loved the look of wonder on the little girl's face, also momentarily frozen in time.
