Had a wonderful evening yesterday, a private tour of a remarkable gallery here in Toronto -- Sandra Ainsley -- featuring glass by artist Don Chihuily.
Here are two results that I am pretty pleased with, one black & white and one colour. If there is interest, more to follow
I'm especially interested in your critical comments
I am seldom able to photograph art works in ways that are not mere snapshots, so I am duly impressed, especially with the first. I have seen many posted images of Chihuly's glass sculptures and I have to say this first one is the best I've seen here. Excellent work and it is amazingly effective in monochrome. The color one is nice, and you've been able to isolate the object from the usual gallery trappings and lighting, but it still has a bit of the gallery feel to it. The first is simply art. I would love to see more. In fact if I had another day here, I'd be tempted to come try myself! (a couple of hours north of Toronto right now)
