While I was in Toronto for work, I knew that I wanted to see the ROM and the Michael Lee-Chin Crystal. Relatively early on Sunday morning, I rushed over Bloor and Queen's Park from the Delta Chelsea to get a good 90 minutes in the museum before I had to get ready for our event. I spent most of my time exploring the galleries of the crystal. This is one of my favorite galleries - the dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures.
I took this picture as an example of so many opposites coming together in this exhibit: the juxtaposition of the very ancient with the incredibly new, the organic with the inorganic, the play of light versus dark, the sharp stiff lines and angles with the curving bones and the list goes on.
