Taken in an amazing Egyptian exhibit at my favorite local museum.

Thanks for looking!

My first impression is grim. But that's a complement, you catch the mood dark and intense.

Very nice work with the light. Good choice for B&W.

Well, now I will have nightmares tonight Jeff!

I guess I should have looked at this one earlier in the day.

This is amazing, very striking. Love the shallow DoF. What museum is that, and where are you?

Cheers Alan, although I think the kudos for lighting is on the museum.

Ha! Mission accomplished. Sometimes at night I imagine seeing that face in the dark - creeps me out too!

Thanks much, Amy! Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond, VA. The exhibit was Treasures of Ancient Egypt: Sunken Cities.
