RRC: On The Walls
Above you see one of my very favorite paintings at The Legion of Honor, in San Francisco. I took this photo in July of 2006 on my first visit to the Legion of Honor, and so it was the first time I had actually seen this piece titled, Dorothy Spreckles Munn, by Salvador Dali, in person, but I instantly loved it. I was at the museum that day to specifically see the Monet in Normandy exhibit, but was thrilled to be able to just get lost in all the art at the museum. The picture I took of this painting, really doesn't do it justice, it should really be seen in person. Her eyes are mesmerizing. It is absolutely stunning!
Now, take a look at what I have found on other walls in my many travels...

You have some amazing stuffs on the wall, my favorite is the autumn leaves, the colours are gorgeous and are those blue things, berries? are they edible?
So glad you left a comment on my RRPC. My PC had a problem and I lost my bookmarks and with them your addy. Nice to have it back again.
I love you collection of on the wall shots. Found several to be fascinating. One outright silly and the others were all fantastic captures for the theme.
What a variety! It's hard to choose a favorite, but I think I like he leaves and the gum the best. Great stuff, all of them!
