yeah


some of the big galleries have guards keeping an eye on things but this was a smaller gallery, anything could happen

yes indeed.


I wasn't aware of Jeffers till I saw this exhibit, he illustrates children's books besides doing these big works. mom and dad may have read The Day the Crayons Quit to the child

ah, yes, I didn't noctice! I like the man's expression, looking up, like a child looking at the stars. I like the overall composition - candid yet well composed.

thanks again. the square crop helped the composition - gave that diagonal from upper right to lower left for one thing. I like shooting in galleries and museums - looking at the people who are looking at the art

yes, that's totally fun! I miss visiting galleries and museum - happens less since i moved a little further on the north shore of Montreal - and became a mom!
