The Getty

My last day in LA I decided to visit The Getty since I had never been.  Amazing what you can collect and the legacy complex you can leave behind if you own an oil company.

I took the architectural tour, and let's just say I got carried away taking pictures of the amazing buildings and grounds...



Amazing views...you could see downtown LA to the east, and the ocean to the west (yes, it was actually a clear-ish day)





 (the infamous 405 in the background - the piece under construction which caused "carmageddon" last summer)



Oh yeah, I actually went INTO some of the buildings and there was some art in there...
 Monet - one of my favorites


 There were a few Calder's also, another one of my favs
