Ailsa’s Travel Theme challenge this week on Where’s My Backpack? at http://wheresmybackpack.com/2014/02/07/travel-theme-yellow/ is Yellow.
Looking up at some glass artwork by Dale Chihuly on display at the Visitors Center in Columbus, Indiana.

Nice yellow series. You don’t often see Chihuly’s work in natural lighting and outside a gallery. Did you decide to do this or was it a challenge?
Thank you! I looked out these pictures from my photo files in response to Ailsa’s Travel Theme Challenge on Where’s My Back. I was very surprised and delighted to see the Chihuly pieces at the Visitor’s Center.

Those glass works are fantastic.
I’ve long been an admirer of Chihuly’s work so it’s nice to come across some of these pieces in the various places that we’ve visited. And my love of stained glass windows goes back to when I lived in England; all those beautiful old church windows!
