Dale Chihuly at the NY Botanical Gardens

I don't particularly like to photograph other peoples' art.
If the photo is good, the question then becomes whether it is a good photo, or simply a good piece of art.
Dale Chihuly's glass blowing is certainly impressive for its massive size and bright colors and
for the fact that it is, after all, glass.
This was my first experience with his work. I was eager to see it at night when I thought the
glass would look awesome illuminated.
Here's my opinion... it was okay. It was certainly worth seeing
but most of it didn't excite me.
There were a few pieces that I thought were awesome and interestingly enough they tended to be
the smaller works.

Here then is my interpretation of Chihuly's work:
