My daughter refused to go to the beach on Sunday (I've been there 100 times already) so, after a brief negotiation, we settled on the Metropolitan Museum. This time it was marked by finding the greatest parking space for Met - the very corner of 83rd & 5th. The amount of people entering museum at 9:45 was staggering, but there is a small entrance to the left of the main stairs that always seems to be empty :smile: Here're the pictures, please CC.

Yes, gotta try to crop out the frame more. I actually was trying to get some wall on the outside of door frames but tilted camera a bit every time , so had to crop it out.
I like the framing with the door frames, but center it a bit more. Other than that wonderful set. Any more?:smile:
Thank you. Do you mean any more pictures? Sure :smile:...

Hello, Very nice set. Personally I find these to be quite appealing. The framing is adding a nice intrinsic quality to the image that holds my interest, and is visually stimulating. It provides a sense of there. I find I enjoy #3 the most of this particular 3 shot set. For my taste, I'd not change a thing. Alan
Personally I like the door frames. Otherwise you get the same old boring museum pictures. The door frames gives me a "window-into-a-window" type of view...
They are all very nice, but like #1 best. Very interesting "frame inside frame inside frame" composition.
Agreed, the frames are awesome, but I bet you wanted to punch the person with the cell phone cluttering up number 4...
Nah... You're right, I thought I had it, but the lady moved in just a bit... On a busy day it's difficult to get a nice shot of a room with people standing the way you want, so I firmly decided not to get frustrated :smile: Made 6 shots of this same place (only 2 acceptable). I liked the fact that 3 colors of the walls and 2 portraits are visible.
