Description

As I look through all of the photos from Saturday, I guess the easiest way will be to upload chronologically, so here's one of my first. This hanging light fixture was one of the first things I noticed in the lobby of the botanical gardens. Lighting was difficult, though, so I did two shots, one exposed on the lamp and one on the ceiling. I cut the lamp from the first and pasted it into the second, had to do a little rotation, then cloned out a recessed light on the ceiling. The originals are in the discussion.

And I never even thought to look up!! I love the composite here so that we have the full beauty of the fixture and all the linear design elements of the roof supports and their shadows. Very nice EOD entry. It was great to meet you and thanks so much for that web page--cool. #4837208
