A Gallery Show! and I might as well talk photography...

When I started this blog, I figured I'd be talking about photography, and I got quickly sidetracked by trying to write items of general interest, which in turn generated very little interest. As a result, I pretty much stopped. I'm back now.

I got into a gallery show! Panopticon Gallery in Waltham is running a show called the "Tree in Landscape", and to fill the show, they opened up submissions to anyone with 35 bucks and a dream. Even they were surprised to receive over 700 submissions from over 130 photographers. Never having been in a gallery show before, I'm thrilled to be even just one of the 45-plus photographers chosen and hang two of the 70-or-so images.

The prints were made on Autumn Color's Lightjet printer, which exposes regular photographic paper using red, green, and blue lasers. Eric from Newtonville Camera, my home away from home, is doing the framing. I just signed the mattes. Well, I also took the pictures, I suppose...
