Locals will know this is the light installation at LACMA. It is truly gorgeous but photographed to death, and that was a concern when I chose it for the Foreground Bokeh challenge.

Naturally, not a fan of reading fine print, I didn't realize it was Minimal, so I couldn't enter the really terrific shot I created. This image was at the very end of the shoot, as we were leaving back to the car. Because of the strong overhead light, I needed some fill beyond just the reflected light off the page, so I had Joe use his cellphone for that purpose.
