Osiris The Rosicrucian Order maintains an Egyptian museum in San Jose, California. Just the place to shoot a corporate magazine cover when an prescient product manager names a new product after Osiris, the god of the dead.

The shot was a logistical and lighting challenge with large spaces, giant reflective doors, tall friezes, and large power requirements.

Even more interesting were real cases of missing people and visits by the police.

Setup began at three in the afternoon and we didn't leave until midnight.
