Happy 2012

Photo 612 Would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy 2012
As a Gallery, Photo 612 was very quiet in 2011 - The year was used to reflect - As a photo enthusiast, artist, and purveyor of all that it is beautiful, I took the year off to reflect over the value & beauty of paper. WOW!
The world seems to be going paperless - books are being replaced by kindles - What is the value of paper?! I was so perplexed by this question that I even printed some of my photographic art work on metal?!
Crisis Over! 
Paper is a design of beauty - Printed matter is going no where.  There is nothing like a gloriously designed piece of  paper - whether it be a scribbling, drawing, printed advertisement, painting, or photograph ;)
A photo is defined :  "A photograph (often shortened to photo) is an image created by light falling on a light-sensitive surface" 
What could be more beautiful than that?
Photo 612 will become more active in the upcoming year supporting on a project to project basis-  Photo 612 will continue to list upcoming events that it finds of interest - Also make followers aware of Call for Art, etc.
Wishing you ♥ & Light in 2012 - Photo 612
