[OM] At the Museums

While Carol's sisters were visiting, we had a couple of rainy days. This was 
fine, as (a) we really need rain and (b) 
they both love museums.

When in a part of a museum where photography is allowed, I tend to photograph 
everything I like, hate, find interesting, 
think I should do one of the preceding about, and so on. So I ran through over 
400 shots.

I like being able to go back over a visit later. Although I seldom know or 
capture the details about the art, it's the 
images I like.

I relatively seldom take pics of the people in museums, but one presented 
itself so obviously that I couldn't resist, 
which led to ...

I don't recall ever before seeing a woman primping in a work of art.

The art is an antique mirror frame, but they have a nice, beveled glass mirror 
in it.

This has to be my favorite shot. All the elements were there and the living 
parts didn't move while I took a couple of 
shots. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=12129>

I showed the shot to the people. They didn't get the Meta aspect. Oh well. 
There's so much going on in it, yet it all 
seems to fit in the frame harmoniously.

This museum is a giant "U" shape upstairs, so the galleries in those wings are 
shotgun style.

The effect of progressive lenses on photographer posture. :-)

The mirror also provided an opportunity I had not thought of when I first 
viewed it for a selfie.
