Re: GESO - Milwaukee Museum Of Art
Thanks, Rick. You are right about the collections. The 19th Century Landscapes exhibit was excellent but the overall collections were very engaging.

Re: Selecting prints for a show
You have lots of fine stuff, larry, what's important for a show is that you stick to a theme... galleries practically insist on it.. doesn't have to be super tight but I think you have to decidewhether to go with the glitzy city and people stuff or the nature. then _within_ a theme go for some variety... ann On 8/21/2018 10:13 PM, Larry Colen wrote: I've decided that I should put together a set of prints that I can show.

Re: PESO: one more flight arrival
That is really impressive, Henk. You caught it at a critical moment, just hovering above the flower. The body is sharp; individual hairs stand out clearly. The motion blur of the wings is artistically pleasing, and conveys well the mechanics of the landing procedure. Parts of the flower are in focus, and part slightly out of focus, but the entire flower is clearly portrayed, and the overall composition is strong. Excellent photograph; worthy of a wall, a book or a calendar.
