Mona Lisa's Frown.... No Wait, I Meant Smile

kundalini · 07-23-2010, 08:27 AM

I recently visited the North Carolina Museum of Arts. They had closed the museum for a long while (nearly two years I think) for major renovations. It is really nice inside using natural light from the ceiling to hit the exhibits.

The Orb

The Medium

The Exhibit

The first two shots are 100% crops of two images taken from where #3 is taken approximately 5 feet from the stand, only different focus points.

D700 with 24-70mm lens @ 36mm, f/5.6, 1/80s, ISO400

Thanks for looking.

A super post. Really a clever exhibit,and nice photos to illustrate how it's set up. Good job on your part of using depth of field and angle of view in different ways.
