The ceiling at the ngv


Ha!
As per yesterday's post, I can now bring you my deliberately blurry ceiling of the NGV.
And to clarify, the ceiling is my old friend - not its maker, Leonard French. I did not mean to mislead.
The ceiling itself is like an old friend - something I see when I am in Melbourne. It was only filming it as a moving image that made me realise its potential as a still. I moved the camera around at speed as I shot a still. Voila!

The stained glass ceiling




I visited my old friend, Leonard French's stained glass ceiling at the National Gallery of Victoria.


Shooting moving footage of it made me see it in a completely different way, so I photographed it, swinging the camera around wildly.


Maybe it's my dodgy broadband, but I can't upload the extraordinary result. So here's a picture of four candles instead!
Talk about frustrating...
