The Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach

Shots taken while visiting the Norton Museum of Art in downtown West Palm Beach.

Be VERY careful when bringing in cameras to this Museum. They are hawkish and you are allowed to photograph in only 3 areas, which are represented here. I was approached numerous times and questioned, and at one point was told "Don't do that!!". My reply was "You need to have a meeting", where he seemed perplexed. I explained my response, telling this 'astute' gentleman that I was briefed and told where I could take photographs by no less than 4 employees, where he sharply pulled out his cellphone to verify...

He later returned telling me that I could take pictures, and I thanked him for his prowess, powers of perception and above all being 'in the know'...

    Wow, cool! Love the indoors shots. For some reason, every time I go to a museum of modern art, I end up enjoying the architecture of the building more than the art itself!

    Thanks Vickie... The building itself is really amazing... the art collection was amazing too, but the building was the *star*

    I only wish I could've been there for the "meeting" conversation. HILARIOUS! The indoor pics are bananas! I love the spiral staircase shots. What a beautiful building. We'll definitely have to go when I come down.
