Progress

We went to the Science Museum in downtown St. Paul on Sunday to see Hurricane on the Bayou –– a movie about disappearing wetlands south of Louisiana that filmmakers were in the process of making when hurricane Katrina hit –– in the Omni Theater (Omni, like Imax, is a brand name for a type of domed theater). The movie was worth seeing. While Joe remembers learning about how wetlands are created by mud that washes off of shores as the Mississippi runs from Minnesota to Louisiana, I could not recall having learned this. And, it was literally eye-opening, as well.

While we were there, I shot this picture that's a composite of the view from a window in the Science museum, a reflection of its building and a reflection of Joe's face. It was taken conventionally, using reflection –– not editing or phased shots –– to create the layers.

I'm calling it, Progress:
