Re: PESO - Gold Dome Railing
Ira, The geometric pattern of the railing is interesting. I'm a little confused about the context. Is this a railing to keep you from falling off of something? It looks like it casts shadows on a wall right behind it. I have trouble imagining how this space goes together. Regards, Bob S. On Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 12:33 AM, Ira H.

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.
