Severance Hall
This is Severance Hall where the Cleveland Orchestra performs. It was built during the depression. It is named for the widow of John Severance who led the effort to build the concert hall and who donated $ 1 million dollars to the project.
I photographed this in the morning when the sun is shining bright orange. From looking at the photo I can see I the effort was not a total waste. The shadows on the building are there because the photo was taken an hour after sunrise on a bright day. I was trying to use the sun as fill-light. Fill-light is used to minimize the shadows caused by the main light. In this photo, the sun produced shadows. Maybe I should try photographing this building an hour before sunset. That is suppose to make nice shadows.
A lady once photographed a gas station with the sun rising in the background. The shot could have been timed better because the sun was too bright in the photo. Often, it seems, he sun doesn't set or rise behind the subject.
