The first floor of the building is a big open area.  There is a balcony-type 
walkway running around this big area on the second floor. The railing keeps you 
from falling off the walkway.  

The shadows that you see don't fall on a wall, they fall on a panel which is 
part of the railing itself.  These panels are the same color as the wall, which 
confuses things. The light pieces of wood are the top and bottom of the panel. 
The art piece in the top left part of the picture is about 8 feet behind the 
railing.

It is very dim inside the building, and I didn't have a tripod.  So what I did 
was set my camera on the ground, peeking through the railing below the panel.  
It does throw off the perspective.  I should probably carry a tripod.

Thank you for your comment.  It really helped me look at the picture in a 
different way.

Ira
