My first solo show coming up in May!
I've been doing the final prep for my first solo photography show, coming up in May at the Art League Gallery in the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Old Town Alexandria, VA. I'll be showing almost 20 pieces from my Summer Garden series from May 11 - June 4. There'll be an opening reception Friday, May 12, with my Artist's Talk from 6:00 - 6:30 pm. Anyone local to the Washington D.C. area, I hope you have a chance to catch the show.
Thanks, but no 'Thanks'
So I ended up getting over 1000 Faves and other comments from my DD! How fun!!
And how long could it really take to send a simple "Thanks for the Fave" to each one of those folks?
Turns out, more time than I have free time for. Way more. 5 days later, and I've done about 150. Because even with the simplest "Thank and run", some image or Journal title will catch my eye, and I'll end up poking around and killing 5 minutes on what was supposed to take 10 seconds.
Plus I realize, based on some replies I got, that the expectation is that people *won't* get an individual "Thank You" for Faveing a DD.
So, while I *am* thankful, and still kind of
Holy Crap!

Well, this really made my day! Another 15 minutes of fame!!
A big Thank You to 3wyl (https://www.deviantart.com/3wyl) for the suggest and opioid (https://www.deviantart.com/opioid) for the feature.
And of course many, many thanks to all my dA friends, Watchers and supporters.
Naturally, all the Faves and positive feedback on that image (and others in the series and in the gallery generally) is very gratifying and encouraging. I'll be responding to all the Comments and questions of course, and at this point I *plan* to send a "Thanks" for each Fave as well, though this DD has lead to more than twice as many Faves as my previous DD last year, and it took about a week to get through
Time for a new Journal entry
In the mean time, here are a few recent non-photo Faves to look at.
