No doubt about who made this glasswork. What I like about this picture is the strong color contrast. Chihuly's work ofter doesn't have it except in small details. That blue against the yellow-orange really pops out.
I have never heard of the artist but do know good glass and designs when I see them.. great subject for the camera.. I am real enjoying my visits to your Birmingham.
What you don't see in the photo is the acrobatics that were involved in photographing these beauties that were mounted above a staircase!! There were also some annoying air vents that called for severe cropping issues. Glad you liked the final product.
FANTASTIC composition, and great colours. Just love it.
... and congratulations on the acrobatics. The cropping works beautifully.
Your Birminhgam is a lot more colourful than my old Birmingham.
I really like this! Great use of colors.
