By exposing for the light flowing through its 19th century etched glass windows, I turn the Capitol’s lobby into a realm of moody darkness, reducing visibility to an abstraction, more a scene from a dream than from life. Three silhouetted figures are frozen in place, two of them Texas Capitol Policemen wearing their Stetsons. One is clearly silhouetted against the glass, while another can be dimly seen standing next to the door at right. The light grazes the edge of the pillars that line the entrance lobby, drawing the eye to the third figure at left, a dimly seen visitor who has just arrived. I thought about converting this abstract scene into a black and white image, but I like how the yellow art deco lamps in the upper center of the image add a touch of reality to an otherwise abstracted image.
