The Newest New Thing

I hope you're not completely tired with the California photographs. This may be the last of them. The newest Apple store in the country opened on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica recently. It is different from any other one that I have seen so far - it is floor to ceiling glass in front, and it has a giant glass roof. The roof is curved, and is tinted gray to screen the sunlight. The support structure for the roof is made up stainless steel rods under tension. It is really cool to look at and see what holds everthing together. Oh, about the photo - this didn't look that interesting until late in the day, and then the building was in sunlight, and the people were in shadow. I really like the light in this photo.
