Metallic Prints

Here's an update on some of the photography shows I've been working on.  I did not get juried in for the NVAL International Show up in Redding, CA.   I did enter in a timely manner the Art Deco Reimagined at the Blue Line.  I should be hearing from that one any day as to whether or not one of my entries was accepted.  The deadline for the California State Fair is coming up and I still haven't decided what to do there.  We will be busy with other adventures during the time of the fair, so don't know if I'll actually enter after all.  The KVIE Art Auction deadline is coming up in another month and I definitely want to enter that one.  I'd like to do a darkroom print - I'll just have to see if I can come up with one incredible print! ; )

Today it's back to working the High Hand Gallery and it should be a pretty busy day.  Over the last week I have been printing out new prints from my stash of European photos.  The majority of them I have done on metallic paper.  I'm finding that the 'luster' metallic seems to show off the metallic characteristics more than the 'glossy' metallic.  I never would have thought that - but there it is.  You don't think you can really tell from this scanned image, but here's one on the luster metallic paper:
