Description

A sculpture at the museum complex in Chicago. Ummm ... with a little bit of postwork. :D Life is getting away from me again, and I've not been able to be around here as much as I'd like. Arrgghhhhh! Too much to do, and still 12 years 'til retirement! * sigh *

:-) I can see this covered in snow and ice right now. Your POV is just right for that blue sky.

Excellent! The off-center framing brings it to life.

Every time I see this thing, I think of the music used in Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Oddyssey. And I keep expecting to see homonids touching it and learning how to do nasty things. I love this shot! The post work gives it a nicely mysterious vibe! Wonderful shadows. I understand the feeling of doing too much! Ugh, it's annoying...like an itch in a part of the body you don't have, thus you can't scratch it...but it's there. But hey, on the bright side of things, 12 years to retirement isn't so long a span of time, especially if you think in geologic terms.

Once again I have to thank Chip. Now I can't get Also Sprach Zarathustra out of my head! Very interesting minimilist art piece. Well captured. I must visit this 'Chicago' of which you speak. }:-0

Nicely done! Isolated from the surroundings these things take on a strange sort of aura!

I knew I recognized this. Don't apologize for life. It happens. I myself haven't been able to be on as much as I want. I have been working and then coming home and working to expand. I love the texture of that. this is a really awesome shot and totally shows the texture really well.

This is really amazing! I love the POV; it really makes this look immense. Your light and shadow treatment is stellar. You can't just glance at this and look away, you have to look at all of those little bitty details that make this so rich. I like this a lot!
