A trip to the Getty Museum

Fossils in Stone


The organic architecture of the Getty Museum built from a budget of $1 billion has to be seen to be believed. No matter what you've read about it, the site in its physical view is awe-inspiring. You've got to see it!
To be frank, none of the photos you would see either in this blog or on the many sites on the internet or in books can ready you for the experience that greets your arrival here. Your artistic senses will revel in gay abandon - such is the mystique and the splendor that encompasses you!
Such is the beauty of Richard Meier's white expanses and geometric patterns, that you almost forget that even more precious exhibits can be viewed inside the glorious structures he creates.


A cafe on the edge of the World
A place for lovely coffee, and discussions on everything!


Vista Magnifique!

Where grass learns what green means. A meadow lush with vivid saturated green, clean and trimmed.


Roman Cup

A sculpture of a Roman relic. The gardener has his likes too!

Garden of Permanance
Metal trees to show permanence; Bougaenvilla to bring life to it; Colors to breathe soul into it everyday! Captured in Black and White to show its agelessness!

The Garderner's Love

His wife and daughter. An embodiment of love.

Criss Crossed Paths
Typical Richard Meier's passion with geometry and triangles.
