Description
Yeah, I know, the joke's getting old, but I heard it so dam many times when we were at Hoover Dam, I just have to pass it on!! At any rate, not only is the dam an amazing piece of work, they put some thought into the design as well. There's a lot of Art Deco influence everywhere; this was at the top of one of the many staircases we climbed.

amazing that this is just the top of a staircase, because it has a monumental feel to it, like it's the top of a tall building, or in the lobby of a large commercial structure, etc. And to think they put this much design sense into an interior that only certain people would see (and without expectation of "art" when they do). Your angle emphasizes the juxtaposition of broad mass with line (ie, the metal posts): Fine juxtaposition, Marilyn. And the hues are light against dark, with a silvery gray & deep crimsons dominating. (I love those crimsons & amber tones!) You show your very fine eye for architectural detail here, and I can see why you were drawn to this place with your camera: You take to it with real power! Another fine piece from this trip.

Damn right on the art deco influence. I expect to see William Powell and Myrna Loy step out from behind those vertical bars. In any event, super POV, clarity and lighting effects in this pic, Maz!

I love that weathered globe, and the composition of this shot is just spot-on perfect! You really captured the light well, and even though this is a detail, it might seem a little odd, but I can definitely get a sense of scale here. Really nice, and I like the way this looks so timeless: it could be ancient, it could be just merely old, or it could be something completely modern with the patina of age applied to it. (I once saw a guy putting rust ON a boutique sign on Chicago Avenue...a week later it actually did look as if it had aged naturally. He'd just applied some kind of corrosive and let it simmer or whatever corrosives do.) Anyway, all of that aside, I really love this shot. It's a real winner among many real winners in your gallery.
