Description of Subject Matter: Discover Colombia Through Its Heart:
Colombia is Passion today announced the event calendar for the “Discover Colombia Through Its Heart” exhibit. The events include photo opportunities with the real Juan Valdez, free Colombian coffee daily, free bouquets of Colombian flowers, and two free concerts featuring popular local Colombian musicians. And, mainly, free tours of the exhibit which allow individuals to enjoy a small piece of Colombia - it’s music, people, cities, opportunities, culture and much more.
The first stop of the international exhibit will include 47 larger than life sculptures – seven interactive 13-foot heart sculptures displayed in Washington’s Union Station, and 40 eight-foot heart sculptures which will appear along Pennsylvania Avenue, the National Mall, and the streets of Washington, D.C. Each one of the smaller hearts is artistically painted to highlight an unknown aspect of Colombia. Each of the larger hearts will spotlight a different facet of Colombia – from its culture, music and talented artists, to the nation’s beautiful landscape, cities, flora and fauna.
The exhibition and events will be free and open to the public and press.

2009 photos: Equipment this year: I mostly used the Fuji S100fs. I've also got a Nikon D90 and a newer Fuji -- the S200EHX -- both of which are nice but I still prefer the flexibility of the Fuji. Trips this year: Niagara Falls, NY, New York City, Civil War Trust conferences in Gettysburg, PA and Springfield, IL, and my 4th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Los Angeles, Yosemite, Death Valley, Kings Canyon, Joshua Tree, etc). Ego strokes: I had a picture of a Lincoln-Obama cupcake sculpture published in Civil War Times and WUSA-9, the local CBS affiliate, ran a quick piece on me. A picture that I took at the annual Abraham Lincoln Symposium appeared in the National Archives' "Prologue" magazine. I became a volunteer with the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Number of photos taken this year: 417,000.
