The Museum

I had a shoot in the morning yesterday.

It was in Los Angeles.

At the end of my work time, I had planned to visit an L.A. beach for awhile.

(Long enough to let the worst of the day-end traffic to pass.)

I got sidetracked when I realized I wasn’t far from the Norton Simon Museum.

It’s been on my list of places I want to visit for at least two years.

I’m so glad I was able to stop in for a visit.

The art was amazing.

(Van Gogh, Picasso, Monet, Cezanne, Degas … just to name a few.)

It was nice to just get lost in it for awhile.

Peace, solitude, and a visual feast …

It was exactly what I needed.

I only took a handful of photos while I was there.

I just wanted to absorb my surroundings.

As I was leaving, I was struck by the sight of two museum officials.

I’m not sure what position they “really” hold at the museum.

I couldn’t resist raising the camera and taking a shot.

I’m so glad I did, because I love how it came out.

I titled this photo The Curators.
