I took this photograph at the Musem of Contemporary Art as well, in the outdoor sculpture garden. I find the play of light and shadow, the mix of textures, from rough-hewn stone to polished chrome, and the variety of geometric forms, fascinating. My subject here is not the chair, but the shadow it casts on the granite floor below, forming a circular web in the afternoon sun. I shot this with the "workhorse" of 35mm cameras, the Pentax K1000. When I printed it in the darkroom, the black lines of the fence jumped out in bold, graphic relief. The last "piece of the puzzle" to appear was the brilliant, mirror-like reflection in the arm of the chrome chair. The full tonal range, the variety of textures, and the interlocking geometric forms, create a graphic black and white image.
