Caption

This is one of my best and my favorite panorama for 2005. It is a shot of the now closed Movieland Wax Museum in Buena Park California. The shot has myself and a good friend (Jack Gallagher) in the mirror reflections.

When I shot this the Museum was going to close for ever in 3 days. Movieland Wax Museum had been open for 43 years just up the street form Knott’s Berry Farm. I had gone there once or twice before the closing and always remembered it as a strange place to visit. Some of the figures look as if they can speak at any moment, others look just strange. Now that it’s gone I miss the place. Hope you enjoy the shot.
