A photo a day from the famous East Midlands city, its surroundings, and wherever the photographic journey takes me.

Work Of Art
I sneaked this photograph of some art lovers admiring at David Hockney's painting; "A Bigger Splash". I say sneaked, as although you are allowed to take photos in the new contemporary art gallery, I think you're not supposed to take photos of Hockney's work. In fact I read somewhere that there's something in the main gallery that stops digital photography. Well not one for taking much notice of such rules against photography, I was up for the challenge. And as you can see I managed to take a reasonable, if Teninesque photo of Hockney's most well known work.

Ha! I thought you were practicing for Eric's big day! I love this particular painting. Iconic Hockney. Love the guy peering at it so closely.
ReplyDeleteYou might need a spycamera like James Bond, hidden as a botton or in a pen :)
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be ironic if this image itself became an exhibit at the NC some time in the future?
