weekly photo challenge: Unusual
This week, the WordPress weekly photo challenge asks us to post something that says “unusual.”
I immediately thought, ‘Holy cow, this will be an easy one, I have gobs of unusual photos!’ But there’s the rub – what says unusual best when nearly everything is unusual?!
Then I thought about the beautiful and unusual chandelier I’d seen weekend in the lobby of the Adventura Arts & Cultural Center. in Miami Beach. I was standing in the lobby of the theatre, and after the show looked up to see this unusual and fabulous lighting design, in the picture. (I wish I could give credit to the person who designed these unique chandeliers. If anyone knows whose work this is, please advise – I’d like to credit the artist.)
Anyway, below is what the grouping of one set of lights. Below this top photo, the result of manipulating the image…
I’ve manipulated the photo to appear like the glass bubbles are shooting up instead of hanging down from the ceiling.
Both of these photos are really cool. Good job, both ways. 🙂
Thanks, Orples! They are definitely neat looking… thanks a bunch for your feedback!
My pleasure. 🙂
Reblogged this on Loving Jazz Photo Blog.

Love the manipulated photo — a work of art from a work of art.
Hi Anne, Thanks for your comments…. I’m really glad I looked up to the ceiling to see these fantastic pieces.
Very cool! The artist must have a brilliant mind.
And great job on the edit and making them appear as if they are bubbles shooting up.

Gorgeous and creative shots, Andrea. I’ve never seen anything like these bubble chandeliers.
Hi Suitablefish, I’ve never seen anything like these either… they were a long way up from where I was standing… I’m really glad I noticed them…

Hi Aridam, Thank you for your comments! I appreciate it so much…
these bubble chandeliers are very common. made by hundreds of factories in China. McDonalds singapore even uses them in their places.
