War on security

Albuquerque International Sunport...not the main entrance, but an installation around the corner delicately suggesting that the War goes on: get your black turbans and burkas all shredded as you small brown people try to swarm into our Inner Transportation Sanctum.
 


But...if you are a pink and blond sixteen year-old you calmly walk through gates, set up your tripod and start filming. Below: Lizzie unleashed at the Bag Claim in Alb. Int. No one protested or intervened. She is working on a 10 min. feature to be included in application to film school. Seems to involve luggage.




Meanwhile...took this to compare now and later. This was taken outdoors, the ground and sky reflect on the paint surface, the colors are not true (the inner blue is Prussian Blue, looks almost black at some angles), the outside area is aiming at being a transition between dark Cadmium Red, going through the dreaded Alizarin to Prussian blue.



And the whole thing is tipped slightly to the right; too lazy in Photoshop.
This is, of course, just a loose stab at photographing one of these, but I do have endless trouble getting the kind images of these pieces which represent them for what they are...or somewhere bearably close. A lot of twiddling in Photoshop. Works better clicked on.
