BGuthrie Photos: James Smithson Society lunch -- Portrait Gallery (American Women)

James Smithson Society lunch -- Portrait Gallery (American Women):

Description of Pictures: American Women: This lunch was with Marc Pachter, the National Portrait Gallery director. He talked at length about the American Women exhibit which collects images of 65 groundbreaking women. He said that most portraiture in the past has always centered around political and military leaders, who have tended to be exclusively male. As such, this was their first attempt to put a representative sampling of women in one exhibit.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

2002 photos: Image quality isn't going to be very good for the first half of this year because these are scans of prints. Equipment this year: I took the plunge and bought my first digital camera. It was August 2002 and I bought an Epson PhotoPC 3100Z. While a nice camera, it had some quirks and bumping it would result in it being totally out of focus until you manually shut it down -- something which blurred almost every picture I took in New York City one day. Trips this year: Two weeks out west, one week in New York, and one week down south. This was the year I started the photo web site. It started to come together in August 2002, mostly as a way of allowing me to keep track of the pictures I was taking. It took awhile to add some basic bells and whistles (logging didn't get added until November) but it's been pretty much like it started out since then. Archaic but working, and free!
