Folk-art landmark — a Rumsey Street house that John Milkovisch clad in an estimated 50,000 flattened beer cans from 1968 onward. Now preserved by the Orange Show Center for Visionary Art.

Creator notes
What works here
Shoot from the public sidewalk — the can siding shimmers in direct sun and the dangling can garlands move in any breeze. Side-on light makes the metal sparkle. The interior is tour-only.
Practical
Plan the shoot
Best time
Late morning for sparkle on the cans
Lighting
Direct sun makes the aluminum shimmer; overcast goes flat and grey.
