EOH State Library Exhibit - 5/5/2011

This is, I think, my third year participating w/ the State Library Exhibit. It's always fun to see all the photos by the other photographers from the club. This year there were 44 photos on display in the lobby area in the front and in the back reading room. This year, I brought my Lumix instead of using my cell phone to get some shots of the set up. The photos in the lobby area is usually displayed on the racks.The photos in the reading room are hung.I met Erick and Celia. I think this was when she told Erick..'you better delete that!'..
Here's the finished display.I wanted to take a slow motion photo of people walking around the display and after playing around w/ the Manual settings a bit, I was able to get this. Trying to stablize my camera on the ledge, I almost dropped my camera from the 2nd floor if not for the cord on the camera! OMG! phew!I include this shot of the ceiling light because I'm surprised how sharp it came out for the P&S. I didn't sharpen this but just cropped the original shot and adjusted the level to try and get rid of the yellow and to lighten the dark areas a bit.

44! That's a lot . . . great participation. I like the lighting in your pictures! I didn't even know the library had a reading room.

Yup, that is what I was telling Erick, "delete it"! Good thing you did not loose/drop your camera.
