Hamel #4

Exterior wall of the Hamel Music Center, Madison, Wisconsin. It is inspiring to  observe the wall's appearance change at different times of day and in different lighting conditions. On a sunny day, I timed this session when I knew the sun angle would rake across the surface. It was a short window of opportunity, on a winter day, and I caught it just in time. For this concept, I used a duotone technique that applied baby-blue to lighter tones and red to the shadows.
