Description of Pictures: Splendour Among Shadows
Open now. Ends September 28th, 2016.
In commemoration of the 30th anniversary of The New York Public Library’s Carl H. Pforzheimer Collection of Shelley and His Circle, the Library presents a new exhibition, Splendour Among Shadows: Celebrating 30 Years of the Pforzheimer Collection at The New York Public Library. The Carl H. Pforzheimer Collection of Shelley and His Circle is one of the most prominent repositories for the study of British Romanticism. Scholars from around the world, as well as high school classes, artists, and historians, visit the Library to explore its holdings. It is also one of the most narrowly focused of the Library’s special collections.

2016 photos: Seven relatively short trips this year: two Civil War Trust conference (Gettysburg, PA and West Point, NY, with a side-trip to New York City), my 11th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including sites in Utah, Nevada, and California), a quick trip to Michigan for Uncle Wayne's funeral, two additional trips to New York City, and a Civil Rights site trip to Alabama during the November elections. Being in places where people died to preserve the rights of minority voters made the Trumputin election even more depressing. Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: just over 610,000.
