Nealy Blau: Trillium, Bell Museum of Natural History, Minneapolis, 2008 (Chromogenic print, 20 x 24 inches, edition of 20). Blau's photographs of natural history museum dioramas are on display in an exhibition at G.Gibson Gallery, Seattle, through December 30.

Perhaps because I used to work at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, and often walked around among the dioramas on my lunch hour, I find this series completely beautiful and transporting. Click here to see more.
