Made at the Museum: Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 16-35mm f/2.8L II
I was invited to photograph Museum of Glass’s annual Red Hot Gala tonight. What a fantastic turnout! People were dressed up to the hilt, and the glass artwork was magnificent. I meandered through the crowd, taking pictures here and there. Cindy came along to assist me and provide moral support. I wanted to make compelling compositions, not just take posed pictures of the patrons. Although the glass artwork was breath-taking, photographing them was a challenge. I’m including a few images I thought turned out well. To see the entire set of 34 photos please click HERE.

Love the bar – (all the glass, light in the back, dark in the foreground.)
and the timeless art composition (people moving, art standing still)

I love the action photos of the blowers, and the furnace really does look hot.
Wonderful Bar shot with the glasses and lights.
