LACMA

One of my favorite places to visit is the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. This is largely because they have a great collection of art, along with really cool special exhibits (like the one on silent German cinema, a part of which can be seen above). But it's also because it's a great place to take photographs.  All of these were taken on my most recent visit a couple of weeks ago.
