Squash in the Sensory Patios, Tucson Botanical Gardens
On August 28th we finally returned to Tucson Botanical Gardens after a long Covid-19 enforced absence. Although the cafe and the gallerys weren't open it was worth wearing a mask in the humidity to finally get out.

One side of the upstairs gallery at the Museo de Arte in Querétaro. The rooms off to the right were where some of the pictures were hung, but the building itself was a work of art.

I love this ceiling, it is just incredibly beautiful. I have been wanting to go back and shoot it again for quite some time. I was just a little off center, but I am getting closer to just the shot I want. This shot was triple exposed and tone mapped in photomatix, I also played with it a little in lightroom. This is why HDR is so beneficial, the originals show no where near the detail this shot does.
The lights you see are a chandelier and this is the info from the brochure I took last night: A chandelier weighing 6,000 lb (2,700 kg) hangs from the rotunda of the central dome. The chain supporting it weighs an additional 7,000 lb (3,200 kg).
You are doing yourself and this photo a disservice if you dont View On Black.

STAFF - PLASTER OF PARIS
Invented in 1850 by Frenchman Mézier ((staff)) is composed of moulding plaster and Sisal fiber.
Staff permits the user to create the structure and decoration of interior or exterior at the same time.
Pre-fabricated elements meld elegance and versatility – for a variety of architectural applications.
Fire-proof, staff also offers exellent, spond and heat insulation.
Staff is ideal for a wide range of architectural styles, and provides a perfect surface for all kinds of paints, varnishes and stains.
Dress the entire house in staff – each room offers a new apportunity to explore the range of mural motifs, arch - and door-dressing, ceiling and skirting decoration, along with our columns, balustrades, pilaster ( demi-columns), mouldings, built in furniture and light fittings.
THE PLASTER: THE ART MATERIAL MILLENNIUM
Some civilizations have worked plaster for its practical and decorative. Many discoveries has confirmed its usefulness in particular:
- South of Lake Tiberias in Israel, where the floors are coated with plaster since 7000 years before Christ - At the Sumerians and Assyrians
- In Egypt, where blocks of 16 tons are sealed and assembled on the famous pyramid of Cheops high to 2800 BC
- At the Romans who used them to their homes and to achieve casts on nature
- In Gaul after the Roman invasion, where the plaster has been used to replace the huts into homes stronger
- In Merovingian who made an art funeral to VI and VII centuries with more than 2000 sarcophagi found in the Paris Basin.

Still figuring out how to use Photomatix. I like more of the natural look. This was 3 shots, +/-2 & 0. I tried to get the "flare" out of the light so you could see more detail, but didn't have much luck. I'll have to try masking it out of the best exposure in Photoshop, but not sure how. I LOVE wide angle and would never have thought to take this shot if I wasn't just "looking around" through the lens. This shot is almost straight up. View On Black
