If at first you don’t succeed…
The first time I visited New York City, my good friends took me to the Met and we walked around for hours. For a short, two-day stop: I had too much gear with me, but I’m grateful I had my wide angle that day.
As we came out of the Medieval hall, I saw this statue and stopped in my tracks. To date, it’s one of my favourite photos I’ve taken. I love the way the 12-24mm and the black and white conversion worked for me.
I was in New York again this past week and I wanted to get another shot of it. Another good friend ambled around the museum with me (for at least an hour and a half) trying to find it (I’d forgotten where I saw it). As luck would have it? The Medieval hall is under going renovation.
Of all the statues left in the room with the choir screen, only the half figure of the angel was removed. D’oh!
Took the shot, anyway. (:
