exhibition evolution

So after whatever pains it took to get the pictures, then you have the task of communicating them to the world. Even if you are not motivated by money and your priority is just to get the story out there, it is still a relentless task. So far I ve been lucky.

There are several framers and several shops selling frames, or you can make them yourself.  To communicate a rustic setting such as the wilds of Northern Mongolia, what better framing than rustic.

This means the photograph is given as much natural life as possible, it is not encased in false surroundings which exemplify wealth or attempt to communicate any such  intention.    Would a yeti be best seen in a specialist moulded perspex raised frame or a worn Victorian wooden one picked up in a junk shop?

Framing options are significant and expensive otherwise, so I am looking for a good alternative which doesn t lessen the quality of the photos.

Use the awareness constructively and the photos can be hung in any way you desire.  The smaller the better, the bigger the best. The middle of the road the most balanced.  The options are endless. The layout essential.
