Tooting my own horn but …
« on: October 15, 2025, 21:01:32 »
This has never happened to me before  but I was suddenly offered a Gallery Showing and have therefore spent the last month up to my ears in printing and framing photographs for the exhibition

I realise that New York is much too far away for most of the members of NG to travel but you can get some idea of what the exhibition looks like from this Link:

Should anyone want to see one of the images in more detail, they are all included in the folder/link called "Highlights" on my website.

Wow Ann, congratulations! I understand it's a lot of work, but not many get this chance. I'd say you deserve this, we've all been honoured to see your work here at NG! Enjoy the actual show (i assume there will be an opening of sorts).

Thomas and Hans: thank you so much for your very kind comments.

Although I have designed and put together Trade Show booths for customers, and done a couple of exhibits for Museums in the past as well, I have never done anything like this before so it was quite a learning experience!

There is to be an opening party at the gallery and my particular guests will be coming back here to my house for further drinks and eats after the gallery event.

Well done - well deserved recognition.

In the Australian language - "G'donya" - translates as "good on you!".  ;D

Congratulations, Ann!  Judging from the images you have posted here over the years, the large prints will be sure to impress the visitors.

Congratulations, Ann. It’s so much deserved. It’s a pity you’re so far away.
