    LOL! I should to dig out my negative "black snow on golf course, yosemite" and donate a print to the MOBA collection, so I can hopefully get at least one of my prints hung somewhere besides my kid's bedrooms.;-)

    LOL indeed. Not many pictures in the lot, though. Does that mean that there is no bad art in photography? Hmmm. Perhaps the guy who runs Photosig should donate his entire collection of pictures to the MOBA.

    I think the photo gallery idea is a good one. I have a particularly haunting Ilfochrome that I put in the processing drum backwards. I cannot tell what the original print was, but the swirling patterns on the emulsion side from the ridges on the drum are quite interesting. The crusted chemicals and emulsion give it a "3-dimensional" quality that one can not truely appreciate unless they see the original print...

    Right, Tim, "too bad to be ignored"...
    I just wonder however if I could do better with pencils or brushes.
    Who knows ?
