Interesting exhibition

Wednesday July 4, 2007 at 05:59AM

After dropping in to Rainer's Camera House today (still no lens btw), I went for a wander and ended up at City Hall.

In the Brisbane Museum (the one on the left as you enter the building), there's a exhibition of Cook's three voyages of discovery, accompanied by some quite impressive panoramic photographs. The panoramas are printed in separate sheets and stitched by hanging them on the walls such that they all align.

It's an interesting effect, alas, no photographs of the installation as there's a sign expressly stating photography is forbidden for this exhibition.

Still worth dropping in for a peek if you're in downtown Brisbane as the prints are gorgeous (something one tends to forget in this day of online photography).
