It would have been really hard without Albion and John. Big thanks forever guys. The images are A2 size with an additional 50 mm white border, mounted on 3 mm foam core and locked into un-glazed frames. This was the safest way to freight them and there were no damages, and the easiest way to hang them using the wire system. I would have liked to have gone bigger, but not practical. The smaller size was actually appreciated by everyone for various reasons. Most buyers have ordered prints-only but a couple ordered the framed versions. I'll probably keep all of these for a future show in Queensland. The two Fujifilm X10 images printed up like paintings, very beautiful. The 60D and 6D prints were totally at ease at this size, and very sharp. The two old Canon G10 images were also very sharp, and were the first to sell, which surprised me. Anyway, its a bit quiet now, but I've got plenty of reading material for the final 6 days. Its been a great learning experience - thanks everyone for your words of support.

35mm 8-element Summicron replica
Asttrum 100 in Rodinal (1:50 @ 68 deg. for 13 min)
-- The three M's: Mary, Molly, and her meter (when she remembers to bring it along).
My mother (on the right wearing the tacky flowery dress) and other stoned party goers captured by my father with his Leica M2 camera and 35mm Summicron lens with Kodachrome slide film in 1961. My mother was worn out by then from carrying and giving birth to five children and was also suffering from post-partum depression, so the booze intake was approprate medicine, I think, because she also suffered all her life from a personality disorder involving shyness and intermittent partial obliteration of her ability to interact with reality. She got this disorder from her Swedish mother or her Norwegian father. This is middle class America before marijuana, LSD, and mescaline invaded the Bay Area around San Francisco.
