Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. SIPM_131026_13.JPG: They were replacing the signs. Note the "William H. Gross Stamp Gallery".
2. SIPM_131026_55.JPG: Favorite Finds: Collectors and their collections ... each unique, each revealing. Examine a philatelic collection closely and you will peer into its owner's lifelong passions. Without fail, one item excites the collector more than any other. Its detail or beauty? Its rarity? The roads it has traveled? "Favorite Finds" brings together an assortment of those cherished items, each from a different home, all with different stories. The common thread: each took someone's breath away. "Favorite Finds" exhibitors include members of the Council of Philatelists, philatelic curators, and museum supporters.
3. SIPM_131026_74.JPG: Windows Into America: The 54 reproductions of stamp art that illuminate this building's historic facade and the interior of the William H. Gross Stamp Gallery, provide a stunning visual experience both inside and out. Each one tells an important story about American history, culture, and identity. Curators selected the images from more than 4,000 US stamps issued since 1847. Practical as well as aesthetic, the translucent windows also protect the museum's collection from light, temperature, humidity, and theft.

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.

2013 photos: Equipment this year: I mostly used my Fuji XS-1 camera but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000 and Nikon D600. Trips this year: three Civil War Trust conferences (Memphis, TN, Jackson, MS [to which I added a week to to visit sites in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Tennessee], and Richmond, VA), and my 8th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including sites in Nevada and California). Ego Strokes: Aviva Kempner used my photo of her as her author photo in Larry Ruttman's "American Jews & America's Game: Voices of a Growing Legacy in Baseball" book. Number of photos taken this year: just over 570,000.
