Popular Backdrop


This wall on the outside of the Tempe Center for the Arts has become a popular backdrop for many photographers.  Almost every time I find myself here, there is a photographer shooting a portrait in front of this wall.  The color and the interesting and colorful lucite dots make a great background for portraits.  Those lucite dots are lit from behind so I keep thinking that I need to get here after dark and take a shot of the wall.

It looks like this was made for photography! Wish we had one in Ocala! And yes, I think a night shot would be just the thing! :)

I can see why its popular as a backdrop Sharon, and even the wall itself has a lovely blue sky background :)
P.s. next time you're in a club with a piano, you should have a wee tinkle on the ivories to see if you still have 'the touch'..

This would make a dramatic backdrop. Do go back at night but also a nice portrait of someone would be in order too.

What a wonderful wall! You definitely need to get back there after dark.

I was at an outdoor wedding on that patio. The block is actually a fire pit. There's one on the other side near the reflecting pool. It's a beautiful space.
