Photographer's Note
In the underside of the sculpture is the omphalos*, an indentation whose mirrored surface provides multiple reflections of any subject situated beneath it. The apex of the omphalos is 27 feet (8.2 m) above the ground. The concave underside allows visitors to walk underneath to see the omphalos, and through its arch to the other side so that they view the entire structure. (From Wikipedia.)
This photo is taken looking up at the omphalos. Everything in the photo (except the tiny specks in the lower corners) is a reflection.
The workshop for this entry includes:
Under the Bean: The concave underside of the Cloud Gate allows visitors to walk underneath to see the omphalos.
*An omphalos is a religious stone artifact. In Ancient Greek, the word ὀμφᾰλός (omphalós) means "navel".
Omfalosa doğru Yukarı Bakmak
Heykelin altında omfalos*, aynalı yüzeyinin altında bulunan herhangi bir nesnenin çoklu yansımalarını sağlayan bir girinti, bulunur. Omfalosun tepe noktası yerden 27 ayak (8,2 m) yukarıdadır. İçbükey alt kısım, ziyaretçilerin omfalosu görmeleri için altından yürümelerini ve kemerinin diğer tarafına geçmelerini sağlayarak tüm yapıyı görmelerini sağlar. (Vikipedi’den.)
Bu fotoğraf omfalosa doğru yukarı bakılarak çekilmiştir. Fotoğraftaki her şey (alt köşelerdeki küçücük lekeler hariç) bir yansımadır.
Bu girişin atölyesinin içeriği:
Fasulye’nin Altında: Cloud Gate’in (Bulut Kapısı'nın) içbükey alt kısmı, ziyaretçilerin omfalosu görmek için altında yürümelerine izin verir.
*Omfalos dini bir taş eserdir. Eski Yunanca'da ὀμφᾰλός (omphalós) kelimesi "göbek" anlamına gelir.

Hello Murat,
I tried several times, but I never got a good photo of the inside of Cloud Gate I was satisfied with. This one is really superb. Amazing distortions and a great colour contrast.

Hi Murat
Yes, this Bean in Chicago will forever be a tourists spot. I wonder if the Bean will always be there or does the artist have a time frame - most often these pieces of art are timed out at some point. its a cool representation of the Bean, so many distortions and its very abstract, I like the end result
cheers
Craig
