Moonrise, from the Getty Center
I managed to get to the Getty Center this afternoon for a few hours. I wanted to see two photographic exhibits, and an exhibit of paintings and illuminated manuscripts, called "The Dawn of the Renaissance, from 1300 to 1350" It is always exhillarating to spend time there. It is as if it is a castle on a hill - the grouping of buildings sit on a hilltop that overlooks the western part of Los Angeles, and the Pacific Ocean. It is always hard to decide whether to spend time in the galleries, or outside looking at the landscape and the architecture. I was about to leave late this afternoon, and just happened to catch a glimpse of this scene, the Moon rising over the hills east of the Getty Center. You can see part of Los Angeles in the distance to the right. Please click on this image to see it in more detail.
