I visited the Getty museum, and only very, very briefly, last week. What a spectacular building!

Thanks. We only had about an hour there. I'd like to go back and spend a day there.

They sell SNPA in the cafeteria.

I especially like the last one. I had the chance to spend a few hours there a coule of years ago. Nice place. I especially remember the illuminated manuscripts and the sculptures.

The Getty is an incredible place to visit. Great shots of the architecture. I need to go back an take another look. I took a few photos of the reflecting pools.

The thing that struck me was the contrast of the sky and the stark white buildings. They gave the buidlings cool textures and shapes to keep it from being a big box on the hill. I'd really like to go back as the sun is setting and get some shots that emphasize the shapes and contrast of the sky and buildings.

There's lots of opportunity there.

Nice shot of the pool. I like the way you froze the water. I tried to catch the same shot, but I think you did a better job of framing it.
