Challenge 741: The museum library
Visited the Canario Museum in Las Palmas, which is one of the dullest and poorest curated museums I've ever had the misfortune to spend time in. Here's a typical exhibit, with a label that tells you nothing: 
The museum has its own library, which is miserable in the extreme. Can you brighten it up a little? High res is here.  |

There is a book called "Sh*t days out" - if there is ever an international version this surely would make the cut _________________ I'm not really bad - I just draw that way |

I was just contemplating spheriods as opposed to library too. But I hadn't thought of anything that clever! Love it. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Family come to stay - so tremendously rushed job this week. With apologies to Ant for, not only plagiarising his idea, but stealing his material too!! Think of it as imitative flattery ............

Re: Challenge 741: The museum library
I have actually been to no 3 and the very last when location hunting for a film in Portugal. These libraries are just wonderful! _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Brightened Up II
You really had to set up a lot of equipment for your spheroid shoot Steve. Is that the curator in white?

Re: Challenge 741: The museum library
Steve, I am curious. In a beautiful place like Gran Canaria why were you mooching around a second-rate library? "Because I was looking for a good picture for the Friday Challenge" is the wrong answer! |

I was so impressed with Tony's (ANT) egg solution I had to incorporate it into my design.  |

Thanks, Josephine, for the beautiful libraries. My own effort is now starting to look boring. |
