Description
The flowing patterns, lines, shapes, and colors that make up this abstract triptych are "natural" and not computer generated. Each of the three parts is a photo of a portion of the brass wrapped exterior wall of the elevator shaft in the old Omaha Public Library, now an office building. The building, designed by Thomas Kimball in the architectural style of early Second Renaissance Revival, dates from 1891. It is an Omaha Landmark and on the National Register of Historic Places.
The three panels of this composition, in addition to two others, can be seen as separate images in my Design Elements and Abstracts gallery.

Great composition, the library should purchase and hang it on one of their walls~! L/F
Nikolyn McDonald replied:
Thank you, Lyn. Though the building was originally the main public library and retains the name "Omaha Library Building", it is no longer in use as a library. But I do think this would be beautiful printed large.

Fantastic study of line and color, Nikolyn... and what a marvelous architectural abstract it makes! f/l
Nikolyn McDonald replied:
I stood here for a long time, just taking shot after shot. It's a beautiful sight that I suspect few take the time to admire. I'll be uploading the three parts of this triptych plus two other frames shortly :) Thanks for the visit, comment, and support, Ann.
