Hi,

Thanks for all the comments on the photos for the exhibit. Much
appreciated. I looked at the images again and again and agree with Peter
that they might be a bit too bright on the screen, but as prints they are
fine.

The opening went well with about 75 people there. Lots of questions about
the center; some folks asking how they can help. So maybe some more support
for the center will come from this. The parents of one of the little girls
in the photos were there and the mother gave a moving talk about how the
center has helped her. It was the best moment of the night? and the little
girl - all smiles ? was the star of the evening.

One photo (proceeds will go to the center) sold. I was surprised to sell
any because of the nature of the photos and we hadn?t priced them. The one
that comes up when you open the link below sold? and not to a parent but to
an employee of the International Committee for the Red Cross.
