Hi Y'all,

I haven't had much time lately because of the photo exhibit I've been working on but its over now.

Beth McMillen (my co-conspirator) talking up the exhibit at a meeting

The flyer didn't work so she holds up a newspaper article about a good looking local photographer. :ivar

folks start to arrive

My granddaughter, having just finished Magic Camp, keeps the youngsters entertained with some magic tricks

Nancy Ellwood (Flygirl) chats up some folks

I had nothing to do with that squirrel warning :evil

In the end we reached our target goal of $1,000 with more $ to come from internet sales. Close to 200 folks attended the exhibit. Two other environmental groups have inquired about us doing something similar for them and the Friends of Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge have requested us to prepare a slide show presentation for their members.

The donated images can be seen here.

How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Welcome back, Harry. You definitely had some top notch images for the event. You better watch out. Putting on quality events like that could turn into another full time gig eek7.gif

    If it was me that squirrel warning would had been a tad more dramatic and graphic.

    Not if I can help it Dan. This one took way too much of my time. :whew

    I have requests pending right now for a show for one group and another has requested a slide show presentation. Also one of the art leagues has requested us to show a few images in one of their shows coming up.

    It was hell Ric. When I was loading the display panels into the pick-up I actually started to sweat. :yikes

    I'm retired I'm not supposed to sweat, its in the retirees' handbook, chap. 7.
