This is a great picture, and knowing its the Guggenheim adds that extra little something...taking it from cool, to very cool.
I imagine it is incredible there.

Behind The Lens

Location

This is the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, design by Frank Lloyd Wright. I tried to capture the design element of the concentric winding circles by using my widest lens, the Canon 16-35mm. Looking downwards, (I shot upwards also) I braced for a clean shot of this amazing museum.

Time

This was in the early afternoon about 1:00PM

Lighting

This is completely natural lighting.

Equipment

I shot this with the Canon 5D at f4 at 1/30th - ISO 800 - no tripod as they are not allowed in the museum.

Inspiration

The beauty and spectacular design of this building is breathtaking.

Editing

I increased the contrast slightly when I printed this. Nothing else.

In my camera bag

I cary Canon Mark II with 3 lens, 70-200mm 2.8, 16-35mm 2.8, 24-105 3.5, a few flex reflectors , a strobe and several batteries to last a couple days if need be.

Feedback

I try to decide a head of time what I am looking to capture. I was museum hunting this weekend so I new I needed a wide-fast lens and a steady bag. This is like a bean-bag with satrap that is very useful to quickly steady the camera on a a ledge or floor or table or chair etc. When I shoot I often close one eye to see what my camera is going to see and then move to a place that has a foreground line/ object which may lead the eyes into the frame and sow a depth.
