Test prints and frames at The Icon
Preparing for a show is always interesting. Here, at the printer The Icon in Los Angeles, along with Luis Diaz, who took these photos, we sized and test framed a couple of the hummingbird images for the Santa Monica Mountains Visitor Center next July. Yes, well in advance, but it pays to do things when you can. You never know when you might need the images, so I like to get it all together as soon as I can after getting the go-ahead for a show. Thanks to the Roger Tory Peterson Institute for giving my this show of 30 images earlier this year. These images are smaller than the RTPI show, as they are designed for point-of-purchase sales to visitors to the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. Great to be involved in nature and conservation, what I’ve always strived to do in my life.
