Dannybuoy Posted October 24, 2012 Share #1 Posted October 24, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) kinda. One of my photos was recently selected to appear in an exhibition at the Tate Britain museum. The exhibition is called Family Matters and is about how the family has been represented in art over the last 500 years. My photo is a reflected self portrait (featuring my wife and son (and my M9!)). Really chuffed that my photo was selected by the curator. Only 9 photos are on display from the hundreds that were submitted. My photo is sharing the same gallery space as a Hockney, a Henry Moore, a Rodan, a Singer Sargent and a Martin Parr photo amongst others. Never in my dreams would I have imagined I'd be exhibited in the Tate. But there you go. I have! And my M9 with red Artisan & Artist strap looks gorgeous too :-) Funnily enough, the very same photo was selected to be in the 1st run of the Leica Jubilee special book that's being printed. I feel quite honoured to have my work in such prestigious places. Got my M9 to thank in part to that. Well and obviously my special skills a photographer. *puts tongue in cheek* Just wanted to share as I don't all that often get to blow my own trumpet.

earleygallery Posted October 24, 2012 Share #2 Posted October 24, 2012 Congratulations! I'm hoping to get up to a few of the galleries next week and will keep an eye out for your photo if I'm in Tate Britain. I once had a photo of mine on display in Tate Modern, only for a few hours as part of a workshop I was doing, but hey, it counts! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsy Posted October 24, 2012 Share #3 Posted October 24, 2012 Got my M9 to thank in part to that. Well and obviously my special skills a photographer. *puts tongue in cheek* No need to have your tonque in your cheek. It's a fine achievement and nothing to be modest about. Can you provide a link so we can see the photograph in question – maybe embed it here via Flickr? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill W Posted October 25, 2012 Share #14 Posted October 25, 2012 Very cool. Like others I was immediately focused on the red strap and then how how intently your son is focused on the mement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
