Ah, so (without wishing to pre-empt what is yet to come - which will
doubtless be much better than this):
<http://www.sacred-destinations.com/usa/seattle-chapel-of-st-ignatius-photos
/slides/IMG_7235> provides a bit of context. A delightful visual conundrum,
Moose. And an interesting building indeed - looking forward to more of
yours.

The font of (presumably?) Holy Water inside the unusual, very modern, chapel
on the U of Seattle (Jesuit) campus. Of maybe a baptismal font? I have
little knowledge of such things, but it's sort of like a large birdbath.
Light from an overcast/drizzly day through frosted glass reflected off the
very slightly disturbed surface. I blacked out the font itself and messed
with the water a bit. :-)
The cast glass and the doors with oval windows below are the same building.
More images of that building and the campus to come. Some people with very
good eyes for shapes, spacial relationships, and so on were involved with
laying out the campus. Attractive relationships between elements, unexpected
spaces opening up, and other felicitous features are common.
