Chihuly Glass

So this is more of an "addendum" post to the prior one about the Children's museum. 

So for a long time I have really been interested in Chihuly Glass, as it is always so intricate and well made, probably some of the best in the world at this point. Since I have quite a few photos, both from the Children's Museum and years prior, I thought that it deserved its own post about it. 

Most of these photos were still taken with my Fujifilm X-T1 and 23mm lens, though a few in the middle from a while ago were with my Nikon D800.

It is always interesting to see glass being blown. It is a crazy process where the craftsmen literally use their lungs to blow air into melted glass, while shaping and molding it at the same time. A few photos here aren't from the Children's Museum, they are from the Chihuly workshop in Tacoma, Washington. 

Since the whole point of the glass is to look at, I won't post too many more words, and just focus on the photos. Though this next one is a photo of the outside of the studio. Just as nice outside as it is inside. 

And now some more from the Children's Museum.

So yeah, not too many words, more photos, but I guess that is the whole point of a photo blog. I think that glass blowing is something that I could really like to learn how to do, though I don't think there are any places that do it in the Bismarck area...

Anyways, thanks for reading!
