i hate shameless self promoting... but here goes
« on: January 21, 2007, 07:36:55 PM »
recently one of my pieces was excepted at the viewpoint photographic art center in sacramento... here is a link www.viewpointgallery.org.  you can see the image at that site (it's the current exhibit so just click on that link and it'll be there under the name aaron boot [that's my name, don't wear it out].)  it is a handcrafted kallitype in case anyone's interested. if your in the area i wouldn't mind a few faces showing up and saying how spectacular it is... or whatever.

Congrats! Beautiful diptych. I can only imagine how sweet and rich that is in person.

congrats and well done on the exhibition.  I dont know much about kallitypes - do you fancy doing a small piece on the process for our new "articles" section?  It's something I'd certainly want to know more about.

thanks to you both... i appreciate that.

i was actually thinking about doing that leon... you read my mind.  maybe, if i could, split it into two sections?  the first dealing with how i make digital negs (so you're able to enlarge a 35mm to 8x10 size) and the second dealing with the actual process.  it's up to you...
