Passing the Baton

It seems to me that a good way to start the year, is through exploration, so I did a bit of that this last week. A friend and I went to g gallery of sorts that is currently under construction. After we finished the shoot that we went to do, we began exploring the building itself. The building was designed by a German architect, and is of fairly contemporary design. The really cool thing about the experience, though, was wandering through the innards of this building in progress. I think that one of the most amazing things about the inside was the vast emptiness sad sense of exploration I was experiencing. Wandering through the desolate halls and rooms. Climbing unfinished stairways. testing ground to make sure it was solid. 10 floors of this in q fairly large building is like cave exploration, but urban. It almost felt like we were exploring the ruins of a civilization, but truly, its quite the opposite. We were exploring the birth and growth of civilization. This experience has opened up a desire to do more photography of this nature, and though it wont be often, I assure you, there will be more. In the spirit of it all, I leave you with photos of design and architecture (and a self portrait) for the week.
