Getty Villa is L.A.'s version of Hearst Castle. Practiced using the 'P' and 'M' modes on my camera. Still a lot more to learn, but here are the pictures that I liked the most:
Star leaves on wood cast concrete found along the entrance walkway to the museum. Some super nerd* told me that the architects that designed the walkway wanted the user to feel as if he or she is in an excavation dig site. If you ever take this route, you will notice that you don't see the actual Villa until the end of the walkway. By doing so, the walkway enhances the history and the exclusivity of the Villa.
Loved the typeface throughout the museum. So simple and clean.
Staggered stone wall
