The Getty Museum: A Photo Safari to Los Angeles

During an open afternoon before attending a conference we took a visit to the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. This is one of the few museums where its building and gardens competes with its collection. In the case of the Getty, it succeeds its collection! Take a look and enjoy!
