Mike, that's a great find. When I was posting this, I thought it would be great if these exhibits moved around. Very happy to that they do, especially the photo exhibit I was interested in...and I didn't know the Jeu de Paume was still open, assumed it was closed after the Orsay opened. Thanks!

None near any of my suspected travels this year. Seattle is close enough to be a distinct possibility. My wife is heading to MN in 3 weeks to visit family and participate in an intensive Norwegian language camp, but I'm being abandoned at home. I'll have to find my own trouble, er, I mean adventure!

The Sally Mann exhibit was featured in our local newspaper a few weeks ago and prompted me to research her work a bit. I found her book Hold Still to be a fascinating and enjoyable read. It is very funny in places and also very serious, and brought back many memories of my wife and I of growing up in the South. It also explains quite a bit about her photographic techniques and aims. I recommend it.

Thanks Jim. Got it on reserve at the local library. I'll have it in hand tomorrow.
