One of the reasons I insist on living downtown is so that I can be close to all of the fantastic city buildings that makeup the city of Denver. Most photographers are particularly drawn to one or a couple of subjects in particular. At the top of the list for me is architecture with good lines. Denver has no shortage of buildings with great lines and I spend a lot of time circling them and considering the best way to capture them.
These were taken on a short walk I took on a Friday night at the museums that are 3 blocks from my apartment. The Denver Art Museum is probably my favorite in terms of the building itself. Sharp angles loom high over the sidewalks and walkways. A bit of a jenga building from the outside and theinterior is no less interesting.
My favorite museum if the Clyfford Still museum though. His artwork is breathtaking and I love that he insisted that his work only be shown together and with no one else’s work. He was absolutely right in knowing that’s the best way to see and understand his work. This museum does a stellar job exhibiting his art. I absolutely love shooting this building with the Denver Art Museum in the background.
