I took this photo some years ago. As I walked into the State Library of Queensland I saw what it looked like umbrellas hanging upside down suspended from the tall ceiling. It was after I took the photo that I realized what they were. I hope you like it.

They're not umbrellas, but I have no idea as to what they might be.

Interesting photo, and well spotted.

That's obviously the technical name, right?

Thanx.

They're early experimental umbrellas until they got the design right. Prototype umbrellas.
