Description of Pictures: Part of Passport DC (Around the World) Open House 2008:
From the Forests of Paraguay to Massachusetts Avenue: The Embassy of Paraguay in collaboration with Restore Mass Ave presents colorful photographic art of the Ache people and the magnificent Paraguayan forests, alongside old photographs and documents of Massachusetts Avenue.

For me, the highlight of the view was an art exhibit by Hernan Miranda who was present. From http://www.labellemaisonfinegallery.com/showartists.php?chosenartist=Hernan%20Miranda :

Hernan Miranda was born in Concepcion, Paraguay in 1960, and first explored his creativity as a self-taught artist. From 1993 to 1997 he served as a professor of painting in the "National School of Fine Arts" of Asuncion, Paraguay. When he is not painting, he teaches seminars and workshops in drawing and painting techniques. 1987 was the year in which he earned his first major recognition at the "Contest Village SOS," where he took top honors in the "Drawings" category. His work is now part of both collective and individual expositions in numerous Galleries and arts centers in and around Asuncion, Paraguay. Since 1987, Hernan Miranda has participated in more than 200 collective exhibitions around the world.

2008 photos: Trips this year: (1) Civil War Preservation Trust annual conference in Springfield, Missouri , (2) a week in New York, (3) a week in San Diego for the Comic-Con, (4) a driving trip to St. Louis, and (5) a visit to dad and Dixie's in Asheville, North Carolina. Ego strokes: A picture I'd taken last year during a Friends of the Homeless event was published in USA Today with a photo credit and everything! I became a volunteer photographer with the AFI/Silver theater. Equipment this year: I was using three cameras -- the Fuji S9000 and the Canon Rebel Xti from last year, and a new camera, the Fuji S100fs. The first two cameras had their pluses and minuses and I really didn't have a single camera that I thought I could use for just about everything. But I loved the S100fs and used it almost exclusively this year. Number of photos taken this year: 330,000.
