Non-Fisheye Guggenheim Interior Photoblogging

Of course, the Guggenheim’s interior does offer non-fisheye photo opportunities as well…

Fisheye Guggenheim Interior Photoblogging

Ahh, that’s much better. It’s not so much the fisheye effect itself, as it is having sufficient field of view to really encompass everything. It reminds me of the National Museum of the American Indian a little bit.

Fisheye Guggenheim Photoblogging

So it turns out that using a fisheye lens on the exterior of the Guggenheim is actually kinda redundant. Now, the interior, on the other hand…

Guggenheim Photoblogging

Finally!  I actually walked all the way from Penn Station to the Guggenheim about 4 years ago to take pictures, only to discover that it was under construction.  But I finally got my chance, and it was everything I hoped it would be.

Random Stairwell And Empire State Building Photoblogging

The Empire State Building looking like some sort of military spacecraft, and a random stairwell photo that turned out surprisingly well.

The Return Of Photoblogging

It’s been a while, I kinda drifted out of the habit.  But now that I’m traveling all over California, it seems like a good time to start back up again.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled MOMAs…

I really like photographing art museums for some reason.  Not the art so much, just the museums.

New York Airport Photoblogging

Yes, I actually do like taking pictures of airports.  Charlotte is probably the best photographically, and San Diego’s not bad either.  La Guardia not so much, but still worth a try.

Worth noting, most of my photos from the party are ISO 3200 and occasionally 1600, just in case you’re curious about the D300′s high-ISO performance.

Killing Time NYC Photoblogging

Despite walking all the way up from Penn Station (33rd St.) to the Guggenheim (88th St.) and then back down to the 50s, I still found myself about two hours early for my grandpa’s 90th birthday party. So I had to wander around some more to kill time and hopefully find some place to sit and relax for a bit.

Times Square Shuffle

Wait… what? Is that anything like The Curly Shuffle?

B&W NYC Art Museum Blogging

The upper stretch of my NYC walkabout took me past quite a few art museums, the Guggenheim in particular, which I figured would be a photographical bonanza.

Museum Of Art

The Metropolitan Museum Of Art.

Guggenheim 1

The Guggenheim. So much for that bright idea.

Carlyle

I’m pretty sure he’s asking her if she has any Grey Poupon. And she’s asking him just where he thinks she would be carrying it.

Random B&W NYC Photoblogging

More NYC photos, including a couple more Central Park statues:

900 Awning

Curved awning surrounded by rectangular construction thingies.

Tree Bricks

Tree roots trying to escape.

Central Park Statue 1

I think this is the Roman goddess of carving little men out of things.

Central Park Statue 2

And this appears to be the goddess of smug.
