Museum of Glass, Tacoma, Washington, USA

Warning: This place is a total rip-off. Don't go there!

For US$12 of admission fee, there are fewer than 50 displays, most of which are of no interest to the general public. In fact, knowing how dissatisfied their visitors will be, this museum displayed "NO Refund" on a cardboard at the cashier counter which we failed to notice before we paid for our admission of US$36, ouch!!

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM
1/20s f/5.6 at 24.0mm iso800 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

At least you partially salvaged this experience with this fine shot. The perspective and patterns make it a compelling abstract. =V=

Hi Simon, This picture is wonderful though! It has a modularly gripping appearance to it. Love it! \/ Most museums are like that and the ones I want to go into usually won't even let anybody take pictures. Don't go to the Mercer House in Savannah they won't even let anybody take notes nor even carry a camera inside! And it's a $12 pop to.

Wonderful point of view, and excellent tones. Well done. V

You chosen the foyer of this spiral as set point.You re a mathematic man Simon. The geometrical form is so pleasant for me.V

Hank Vander Velde		01-Mar-2010 13:45
A picture is worth a 1000 words Simon. You got this one for only $36.00, a bargain, I would say. Nice B&W image with a great POV.

Karen Stuebing		01-Mar-2010 13:35
The museum may be a rip off but this is a great photo. Love the POV and the bw treatment. V.
