Re: GESO - Photo Exhibit

Thanks Bruce! Your feedback is very encouraging - I admit I felt some trepidation when pulling the photos out yesterday since no one except my wife and I had actually seen the prints before then. As you say - the project experience was an eye opener. Less time to take photos as more time was

RE: So I went web shopping

I remember a Schneider-Variogon zoom lens being reviewed by the British Journal of Photography about 35 years ago, and the results were outstanding - even by today's standards. If you can afford the price, they must be among the best lens made anywhere. John in Brisbane -Original

Thanks, Jack - and thanks to everyone else who had a look. I'm looking forward to getting feedback from people at the reception. Several of the people with work in the group shows are friends so I expect we'll be having a bit of a party on Sunday :-) Mark On 6/15/2017 9:44 PM, Jack Davis

Re: (which photos) I'm going to try to sell this Saturday

That is a really fine collection, Larry, and the images are diverse enough to appeal to almost any taste. Selling prints is tough these days. I will be very interested to see how many you sell (compared to how many admirers the prints draw). Dan Matyola

That's a fine set of images, Larry. Good luck with the sale. As anyone who has witnessed my online displays can tell you, I'm completely at a loss when attempting to predict what people want to see, and even worse when trying it with a print sale. You have a nice, diverse range of shots that
