lots to be done. got to get a workspace in order, a studio, and work some more on my lenses. i'm up to three sales in the shop, and i just processed all the film i'd been saving up over the past year or two.


2011 is going to be a very different year for me. stay tuned!

fifty facebook fans celebratory giveaway!

hooray! did you notice? photographic arts + trade is liked by fifty whole people! some of whom i don't even KNOW.

to celebrate our fifteen minutes of fame, i'm going to do a little giveaway! here's how it'll work:

everyone who 'like's photographic arts + trade on facebook gets one entry just for showing your support. everyone who links to the group on their wall, or in another way advertises us to the world, gets two more entries (write on the group wall telling me you did it, lest i fail to see)! that's pretty much it. pretty simple!

i'm going to tally up the entries and do the draw this saturday, october 23rd, at 6pm pacific standard time.

the grand prize will be a print of your choice from my album, ten virginians and a geisha.

two runner-up prizes will be your choice of any set of prints from my album greenery.


your humble servant,

miki ross
