Title: Bones Of Culture

Description: The Kimmel Center, Philadelphia, PA.  Architecturally, this is a perfect building.  It is home to many theaters of various sizes, and it truly is the cultural center of Philadelphia.  I would consider this one of the crown jewels of Philadelphia, both for its purpose and for its aesthetic qualities.

   Is this black and white or is it just the tone and lighting? Either way, beautiful pic.

   I’ve seen this building a number of times, and never have I seen it in this way! It looks great, and it certainly changes perspective.

   The 3D / optical illusion character of this photograph is mesmerizing. It’s the type of place you want to visit just to see if you can capture the same perspective in person.

   This is great. The repeating curves and the range of tonality really make it. Make one want to see the space.
