Bok Tower Exhibit

[Arthur Morris]

Let's hope that this post will be met with a little more sanity than my last attempt here :)

My exhibit at Bok Tower opened last night (1-30-10). We had more than 100 folks in attendance. The ophthalmologist who examines my eyes for diabetic complications was there and purchased two prints. When he arrived he did not know that I was the photographer! James Shadle and Sid arrived late for the slide program and were locked outside. They hung around for an hour just to say 'Hi." Robert O'Toole and Jennifer's family were there as well.

Artie, congrats on your exhibit. How can we see some of your images?

Thanks. When I first read the above, I thought, "What is this woman talking about?" Then I looked at Pane #1 and saw that I had forgotten to upload the image :) Thanks also to Richard. Grandkids tomorrow!

[Grace Scalzo]

Congrats, Artie. What a fine body of work. If you have more images of the exhibit, please post.

[Arthur Morris]

Thanks Grace. Canon generously sprang for 34 canvases... Will do.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Looks good, I like the selection and the images seem to be well-lit.

[Arthur Morris]

Thanks Ax. Here is an interesting note; when I was working briefly on the image, the blues were way too magenta. The normal methods of fixing them did not work so I went into Selective Color and added 100 points of CYAN to the BLUEs and bingo! (I tried it because it has worked great with unruly REDs before.)

[Alfred Forns]

Great exhibit Artie love the image presentation !!!

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Congratulations Artie on your exhibit . Sure would love to have the opportunity to see it. How long will it be there ??

[Julie Kenward]

Artie, what was the 'theme' (for lack of a better word) for this exhibit - is it a certain period of time or a specific place or just your favorite images??? How did you decide what would go into this particular exhibit?

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I forgot to say that I really like the idea to have part of the image on the edge, gives it almost a 3D appearance.

Thanks. It will be up through the end of March.

Congratulations Mr. Morris,

Are you talking about the right frame edge? If yes, that is the shadow of the next image. (Slightly confused.)

I meant the side of the frame, in the osprey image the image extends on that side.

Congratulations on the Exhibit Guruji, Lovely placement of images on wall

Congrats Artie,
Sid and I were bummed that after driving 3 hours we didn't get to see the exhibit or sideshow (Robert said you killed), it was good to see afterward nonetheless.

Ah, they create the sides at Canvas on Demand. (The images are printed full frame as I send them and they build the edges for the wrap.) Amazingly, the images are printed from 150 dpi images that I size, sharpen, and e-mail!

Thanks Froggie. I was bummed too, but there is nothing left now to do but love it :). (I saw that you called a few times; my cell was in the car turned off....) And at least it was on the way home for you ;)

Guruji
I am doing one exibition in March to support one tiger conservation program. You must be knowing we have marked 2010 as tiger year. Can you let us know how you have printed the images ( Size , paper , PP ). We are planning to print them in 20 x 30 and 30 x 40 size. your help appreciated

[Arthur Morris]

Harshad-bhai, We did not print them :) They were printed by a great company called Canvas on Demand here in the US on canvas on a Canon 9100 printer. They are excellent.

Thanks Guruji , need to talk with Canon India , I am sure they will help , Canon user now:)

[Arthur Morris]

Good luck. What prompted the switch?

The space and the images in it look great, I wish I can see an exhibit of yours some day.
If you don't mind I have two questions:

1 Do you always exhibit w/o frame i.e. canvas with wrap, and what made you make that choice.

2 Can you tell bit more on printing specs. Is it always 150 dpi regradless of size, what are sharpening settings? I just got an HP Photosmart printer and experimenting at this point:)

I hope my questions are sane:D:)
