Hey SP
Painting oneself into a corner.
Didn't realize Tal did more than bass.
Very cool.
This was my mother's strokes circa 1950.
She dabbled a bit while in Syracuse.
Sort of a Cezan type still life.
Rich and heavy.
thanks for the oils!
(wish I could work a camera)

Hi, Q
Looks like your mom had a talent for painting. My great grandfather also had a talent for painting.
This is one he painted in 1893 of the family homestead.

Hi, soryang
Great artwork is right. The amount of detail in some of the paintings is truly amazing.

I feel as if
I'd had a chance to visit these museums from your selection. It brought back memories of a few of the worlds great museums I was able to visit earlier in life.
I'm actually surprised you could take photos there. We watch a lot of youtubers/ guides to foreign cities, and it seems quite a few museums won't let you photograph anything inside.

I was happy to take you along
I don't get to a lot of museums, but the ones I have been to all allowed photography. The only restrictions some of them had was no flash photography. Art galleries where the art was for sale was another matter. I haven't been into a single art gallery that allowed you to photograph the art work.

That was my first thought too, living in Europe as I do
So many of the art museums I ever went to that had big-name artists on display expected you to obtain a special permit.
That was before the everybody-has-an-iPhone era, maybe it’s different now.
The targets of today's essay are likely less challenging to
photograph than the moving subjects than you have previously posted.
Hi, humphrey
While not as challenging as shooting moving targets there's still a challenge. Like making sure the camera is level both horizontally and vertically and that the sensor plain is parallel to the plain of the subject. You also need to have proper white balance to get accurate colors. Different light sources (incandescent, florescent, LED, natural light) all affect color differently.

Hi pixelators
Hi all, Hey SP!
Great pictures of great pictures.
These photos look like great paintings@
Excellent images SP, very well done, and much harder to do than it might seem.
Not sure if my net here (dsl) but it took ten clicks for the log in to respond and a half-dozen to get your threat to open... The system here seems to be powered by an Armadillo on a wheel chasing a fat juicy grub. Maybe everyone here is streaming, I don't know. But I am afraid to try to upload.
I'll see how this goes first...
Thanks for the great images of great images SP!
happy trails all@

Hi, dystopian
I don't think it's your dsl. It's been extremely slow for me posting to c99 tonight, too. Connecting to anything else on the net has not been a problem.
