Thanks for sharing this discussion! The opening was a wonderful experience and my hat is off to Jeff and the staff of the MplsPC for pulling all of it together so quickly and beautifully! And kudos to you, Valerie, for taking on the daunting task as juror – the photos in the call for entries exhibit are incredibly strong, and seen together with your masterful images of Paris make for an impressive statement on the beauty of Street Photography today! I am honored and proud to be a part of the larger community, but more specifically proud to be a part of the Street Focus community!!
Congratulations to Jeff, the MPC staff members, volunteers and you, Valerie, for a great experience from entry through the Grand Opening soiree. I am very thankful that I entered and honored that you chose one of my photos for inclusion and an award which was the frosting on the cake for me. Everyone I talked with at the Opening was friendly, interested and interesting. MPC is definitely an asset to the Minneapolis and St. Paul photo and art communities and to both cities in general. Keep up the good work and I hope that I will be able to work with MPC again,
