A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

After weeks of study and the occasional bout of frustration and self doubt, I had the opportunity to showcase my work at an actual exhibit -- my very first photo exhibition!

I was honestly quite nervous about how others would receive my work, which sounds strange I know; considering that I have been displaying my work on Flickr for almost two years now. But I have to admit that it felt good watching the crowds gravitate towards the matted photos (that I strategically placed in the center of the main wall) knowing they were mine.

I got a big kick out of explaining my motivation and technique. But the highlight of the day came as I sold one print and negotiated the sale of other! Yes, I know it's not the Louvre, or the Met, but it was a very proud moment for little old me! Yay! :o)
