Photo of the Day: Chihuly Macchia

Dale Chihuly is an extraordinary glass designer. His works can be seen in various locations from the Bellagio in Las Vegas to the Monterey Bay Aquarium to the Rockefeller Center in New York City. Recently, the de Young Museum in San Francisco had a large exhibition of Chihuly's works. Photography was difficult since photographic support (tripods and monopods included) wasn't allowed into the exhibit. I did the best I could and took a lot of pictures of Chihuly's work. This example is of what he calls a Macchia - which as far as I can tell is a bowl within a bowl.
