Just a few shots - not of the art but the building interior!

The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

Sterling in silhouette
I held a lighting workshop recently. Sterling was the model. I rarely shoot silhouettes but I wanted to incorporate that arch into a shot. Backlighting became an obvious choice.

well done Ryan is this a composite or all in one night either way great outcome the individuals silhouette is perfect against the ambient light from the city the footpath is obviously a great leading line and the texture of the grass is nice ...did you try hopping the contrast in the upper part of the MW.... something like this with just a bit more punch and richness
Thanks. The sky was taken about one-ish hour earlier than the ground from perhaps 10 feet away in a different spot, so yes, a composite. I appreciate your opinion, but that has a bit too much saturation for my taste.
