    I love the photos. Pity a lot of British gallerues do not permit photography.

    Great shadows from two wonderful museums.
    From what I have been seeing on the weather channel, you certainly don't have the sunny biking weather in MA that we've been having in CA.

    These look a lot better posted in large format. I'm glad I switched templates.

    Thanks for stopping by Bobbie, Jams, Martha and Sylvia!

    The shadows add life to these sculpted beings. I am particularly drawn to the one in the middle, the hand pointing to something perhaps to grasp that thing. Wonderful art and well captured!

    I love the serenity
    that wonderful museum feel

    the middle shot is my favorite
    strong shadow and the long finger is so poignant to me

    I'm always surprised when I see photos taken in a gallery. But hey! Just because I'm jealous doesn't mean these aren't great shots. Well done.

    Stine: a lot museums I've been to allow photographing without flash. A few only allow it in certain rooms and a few don't allow it at all.

    Modern Art museums are the best to take photos in because they usually have great light.

    Thanks for stopping by!
