Description
When we were in Washington, DC, we went to the National Gallery of Art. All the public museums in DC are free, so we took four days and had a great time. We didn't feel rushed, and we didn't have to pick and choose which galleries we had time to see. We just kept going back until we were finished. The museum is contained in two buildings which are connected by a tunnel under the street. The West Building showcases mostly classical, pre-1900 works of art, and the East Building is dedicated to modern art. I was thrilled to see that the tunnel itself was a work of contemporary art! This 2008 installation is "Multiverse," by Leo Villareal.
Ana, you bring so much light to us with your art, I hope the light in this tunnel brightens your day and makes you smile. :) Much love to you on your special day!
Happy Birthday, Ana!

My, how interesting! Are those lights moving along a track, or are they still? Beautiful photo. Keep up the good work! :-)

UAUU, Tara! Thank you very much for this BEAUTY!! I loved so much your image, that i didn’t resisted to do the ‘promenade’’ with you:)! I am very curious, so, i looked in Google and i found some videos of it and i crossed the tunel:) and i adored! This place it’s beyond all words, with the lights shinning and in 'movement; and i almost fainted when i read that the tunnel had about 42,000 Leds!! Indeed, a great work of art and criativity. And I heard voices in your language and some music along the way, lol. I felt like if i 'was' there and soo near You, hehe!! Sculpture lives deeply in my heart and this tunnel is a work of sculpture, still, a ‘tunnel’, always was a challenge to me, and i crossed it - though in a virtual way - but i did:) and i even could see some things in the other side...
AND Lights are a fascination to me also and you send me 42,000 leds!! What to say? I enjoyed this very much Tara and i am grateful, because once more, you gave me the chance to do the trip with YOU:) Yes, i had a big SMILE:)))) and i thank you for your loving words to me too:) I don't deserve so much! I also want to apologise,because i am so late here, Tara, but some things have been somehow complicated by my side lately...so, i had not time to be at computer. Only some few minutes to spy and enjoy..:) Thank you again for your wishes , for this wonderful present and because You remembered me in this day, Tara. Love and hugs,ana
I also want to thank everyone for the good wishes to me:) thank you!

I thought for sure I'd commented on this. (When I looked tonight, I thought I had because Ana's comment was as long as one of mine!) Ana was obviously very touched by this, and she means it from the heart (and when she said "some things have been somehow complicated by my side lately," that's an understatement; so you can be sure she appreciated this). Full size, it opens up into a big corridor of lights, and I love how they curve on the right. And the darkness around the walkways, and the light at the end, with all the people---it's the climax of the shot. And you did this with an iPhone! Very impressive! It feels cloistered, intense and luminous. Terrific pov and light in the dark dark---and very clean for a cellphone shot! I know cellphones are pretty good these days, but you don't have any visible grain, and I'm looking full size. A wonderful dedi for Ana, who really appreciated it from the heart. Thank you for this beautiful dedi for her. It's wonderful.
