Chihuly Canopy Close-up


This is a hard piece to shoot because there is a plexi (or glass?) cover over the bottom of the canopy and it creates a lot of reflection. If I owned any 1 of these 80 pieces in this sculpture I would be over the moon. It is lit at night but downtown Toronto is a busy place in the evenings - hard for parking, lots of crowds. I'll be in the area at night in a few weeks and will try for an illuminated pic!

  1. Lovely during the day, and even more so at night. Will look forward to seeing your night-time shots.

  2. These are different from some other Chihuli ceilings I have seen, because they are pretty much all the same item. I was in Tacoma a month ago and the one there is a jumble of different items. I like yours better.
