I went back to the museum again today. I can't mention the name, because you are NOT allowed to take photographs here! But there was this one portrait that for some reason really grabbed me. I must have come back to it four times, for some reason. It was a self portrait of the artist, done in 1929. I went down to the book store to see if they had a postcard of it, but they didn't. So I realized the only way I could have a copy of it was to sneak one, when no one was looking, and there were guards all over the place. So I hid my toy camera under a museum map, and when no one was looking, I lifted my arm with camera and map and aimed in the general direction of the painting, and this is what I got! Guess I will never make a good spy! For some reason I kind of like this quirky accidental image and decided to post it for your amusement.
I seem to remember being with you at a NY Museum and you took a secret photo! Bad Kenny.
ReplyDeleteWith her intense stare and photo askew, it looks like she's admonishing you, Ken, because you took her picture! :)
ReplyDeleteYes I like that last comment. Your story reminds me of another good movie for you to rent "The Thomas Crown Affair".
ReplyDeleteI love this photo! Much better than if it had been taken straight on. I hope you muted your camera's sound, that's the key to sneaking shots, which by the way, i silly if you're not using flash anyway. Great posting!
