Thanks guys

He he right way up ...I like it that way actually

Ken, the entrance to the main gallery is actually up there, the elevated gangway you see on the left in the pictuire is the way in, so as everyone enters they will be able to look across and see the five images as they walk along the gangway into the galleries, there will be an imformation panel explaining each image bolted to the handrail

ego, is not a dirty word

Well done Mike, nothing like an ego boost. Kevin Rudd will be getting jealous.

Good on ya Mike, we all know your images are first class, now hope many of the general public will get to know you also.

ps. I bet when you get the 12" trained on this area it will produce even better.

All the best.

Congrats Mike!
It's well deserved!

Beware about willing to be hung though!
Next thing you know, you could be shooting the kids and framing the wife
