Sounds right to me.

Jon and David it's great to see folks out of Ireland with such an enthusiasm, I took the liberty of taking a sneak peek at your galleries love both your Irish shots. Now all I need to do is find some of my own that I like as much

Síle, thank you, and I'm sure have many worthy photos. We are often our own worst critics.

Fintan, Peter, and all: It is a very generous offer to even consider non-inhabitants, whatever the conditions end up being. If I can't make the opening, I have a cousin in Dublin who everyone says is the spittin' image of me. I'll try to teach him the finer points of the American accent

How about "The exhibition formerly known as all except David"? It has a certain ring to it ..

Thanks Jon, but I have to ask... there are finer points to the American accent??

Please count me in, if you have the space, if I qualify, and if I can submit even though I will be away all Sept - I am off to travel the often photographed deserts of US Southwest. I'm Polish but away from there for the last 18 years... Last few in Wicklow.

"Silver Ireland"? Sorry colour people... :-)

Rafal

PS. I guess I should make my darkroom available to someone who fancies team work near the slopes of the Little Sugar Loaf one day. The set-up is for 4x5.

Hi Rafal, I'm glad you're gonna join us. I've only been here a little over a year, myself!
For anyone down in Cork, my darkroom is also open. I haven't decided whether I'll submit b/w or colour...

I'm working on two fun projects at the moment that might have potential. One is pringles pinhole images of Cork. The other is an experimental series about childhood.

Hi Rafal,

Great to hear you are joining the artists and me

That's 3 of us from the Garden of Ireland! Your darkroom sounds great, unfortunately I'm shooting 35mm & MF so it's out of my league.

All,

Do we have any ideas for date(s) for the exhibition?

I'm hoping to be able to use some shots from the workshop with Les around St.Patrick's weekend.

Hi David, I think we are hoping September/October 2008.

I will need some sample images to submit to Sirius Arts Center if we want to show there. They need an idea of the kind of work we do in order to commit. There are 3 or 4 other Cork galleries we can approach if we do not get into Sirius for this year. Do you have anything in the dferrie archives that would be appropriate for me to include in our package to Sirius?

Catherine

I bought a new A3 size scanner recently so I can finally scan my prints

I will try to install it soon and get some scans to you Catherine. That may take longer than the average guy as technology and me don't mix so well and I'm not joking
