Abstract Challenge

[Brian Moore]

Just for fun I thought I'd post a photo of an abstract and see if anybody was willing to take a guess at what kind of object it is.

By the way, I shot this with my Olympus XA. The film was Fuji Neopan 400 ASA. I developed it in Rodinal. I didn't modify the image in any way. No cropping, and no tweaks or adjustments of any kind.

Tomorrow or the next day I'll post a reveal.

Well at first I thought it was a modern equivalent of wrinkly tin but They look more like metal slats to me no I look closer. So, I'm going to hazard that it is some sort of shading on the side of a building.

I go with the side of a clad building. Looks like there is the sun in the sky just off frame at the top.

 

[Hamish Gill]

yeah, corrugated steel side of a large barn is my guess

 

[Chris Dodkin]

I'm metal thinking roof rather than siding ...difficult to get an idea of scale though

You were all very close. It's "The Pyramid" at California State University in Long Beach, California. It's an auditorium. I believe the school basketball team plays there. Not sure what else happens inside it. Probably concerts and such. Thank you all for playing!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Wow - that's a huge structure!

 

[Brian Moore]

Aye, Chris, its awfy big! (Our local Cheops.)

But I guess they used less slaves to build it!!
