A huge thank you to Tracy Lee!

My photo exhibit at the Hershey History Center was her idea from the start, and she ran the whole thing beginning to end. She set up the displays so people could actually walk around and move through the photos (not just a row of pictures strung along a wall). She handled every sale, too, and thanks to her we raised about $800(!) for the HHC.

I had so much fun. Meeting more than a few people who said: “I see your pictures all the time on Facebook!” (to which my immediate response is always… “I’m sorry, I have a problem.”), talking about the prints on display and the cameras/lenses I use, and hearing everyone’s own Hershey stories (that was probably my favorite part). Seeing people stop and really engage with the photos had me smiling the whole time.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by. I really appreciate it!

And if you couldn’t make it, fear not! The gallery prints from the exhibit are up on my SmugMug site if you’d like one. Link here:

*also open today (Saturday) from 10am-3pm for the second (and final) day of my photo show (museum admission required).

A woman last night told me that I take pictures with my heart, and that was just the nicest compliment 🙂

I saw Gloria Steinem speak here. With my wife. She wasn’t my wife at the time, though.
