I had some exciting news a week or so ago. There is a juried photography exhibition called "Krappy Kamera" that I entered back in December. This is an annual show in it's 11th year. The photographs have to have been taken with a camera that has a plastic lens, or is a pinhole camera with no lens. I shot all of my black and white China images with the Diana + camera which classifies as a 'krappy kamera'. I submitted 6 images, and this one, Prayer Tablets, was selected. So on Friday I worked in the darkroom all day and printed, matted and framed it to send to the Soho Photo Gallery in New York. It felt great to be working in the lab making art!

That is so exciting! I'm really happy for you. By the way your house looks so cute.
Congrats!!!! I'm so proud of you! And not surprised a bit! You're amazing, talented and fabulous!!!!
Yeah Jamie! It's so funny that with all the technology and advance cameras out there, krappy kameras are unbeatable. I know I hated Hildi the Holga originally, but now I kind of miss it. Congrats! Are you sure the art dept won't pay for a photo trip for us to go see it in person? :-)
