Dinner with a View and More

 



Last Saturday evening, I had dinner with friends before an event in downtown Phoenix.  We decided to have dinner at The Compass which is the revolving restaurant on top of the Hyatt Regency Hotel.

I snapped this photo before it got too dark to see anything. The view is great but the reflections in the glass make it difficult to Photograph.












This photo shows the restaurant from the street below.  You can see the round part where the restaurant is located through the palm tree.  

















The event we attended was the ballet.  I had never seen the whole Swan Lake ballet performed before.  I knew the music and had of course seen many bits and pieces in movies or TV shows but never the whole ballet.  It really was quite spectacular.

Sounds like a wonderful evening, Sharon.

If I get stymied by reflections when I'm taking a picture, I try to incorporate them into the image somehow. Sometimes it works and sometimes not! I like the shot looking up and the building with the restaurant through the fronds.

Swan Lake is a tragic love story with beautiful performances.
