This is what they look like after I sign them. It’s an edition of 15, with each piece number one. The Allen’s Hummingbird chicks just after hatching, and then with their mother keeping them warm in the nest.
I am listed on the email announcement just received, under Photographers. Nice company here with some great artists. The exhibition begins today and runs through December 28 in Jeffersonville, Vermont.
Here I am in my garden on May 24, 2008, holding the 15 x 22.5-inch Willow Flycatcher print before I delivered it to the Wildling Art Museum’s ENDANGERED SPECIES exhibition. Note in the lower right, the Anna’s Hummingbird is hovering above the feeder as if nothing is happening. I could hear his wings humming from where I was. I stayed still to allow him to drink and then fly off. Now for the second photo here, taken yesterday, the Willow Flycatcher framed print is still in the package that Penny Knowles, the Executive Director of the Wildling Art Museum, sent back to me. Now it’s off to Mickey Myers and Jim Gallugi at the Bryan Memorial Gallery in Jeffersonville, Vermont, to be shown in their 2014 Legacy Collection exhibition, running from May 2 until December 28, 2014. Thanks to photographer Thomas Howard for taking the picture of me yesterday.
For the Roger Tory Peterson Institute exhibition on Backyard Bird Photography to run from January 13 through March 8, 2015. This is the only square image in the show, an Allen’s Hummingbird. Thanks, as always, to my printer Luis Diaz of The Icon for taking the photo. The series of 30 images are all numbered 1 of 15.
It’s so great to remember back to that great exhibition, and appearing in the museum catalogue. Now, I think this adds to the value of this unique print, which will be seen at the Bryan Memorial Gallery in Jeffersonville, Vermont this year.
