Thursday, February 12, 2009 – Hope and Grand

Walt Disney Concert Hall, Los Angeles

The light was good, so it was time to visit the Walt Disney Concert Hall downtown, between Hope and Grand.  It's be a few years and the place has changed a bit – the neighbors complained about the glare off all the curved stainless steel panels, so they did a computer analysis of the building's surfaces, identifying the problem panels, and sanded those down to a matte finish.  Of course the architect is Frank Gehry (born Ephraim Owen Goldberg) – world famous, won the Pritzker Prize and all that. No one else designs things like this.

But this is not an architectural study.  It was just a good day to play with the light.
