 I've been to the Kimmel Center 4 times in the last two weeks. Shot this last Thursday. Started on the roof top garden and ended up leaving after like 5-10 minutes because it was SO FREAKIN' HOT!!! A vertiable sauna. The air conditioned eleavator was a welcomed relief.

Back down on the main floor, I saw the stairs open to the first mezzanine and asked if I could go up. The gentleman I spoke to look at his watch and said yes. So I did. Shot this there. I shot it before but from the opposite end of Verizon Hall, the dark wooden lines, and on the other side. I like the how the light played off the wooden lines and the shadows I got which were not in the original.

Enjoy.
