I was asked several months ago if I would be willing to put together a solo exhibit of my photography. I was honored. I was ill-prepared. I had no idea how much work it would take to put together.

Last year, my first VIEW entry of the year was a “Year in Numbers.” I’m not feeling quite so reflective this year, but an ‘in the numbers’ might be in order. So without further ado, I give you:
