I don't think it's going to be set up until just before Thursday, October 1.  The real target is the "First Thursday" art walk evening that Santa Barbara regularly has.

Thank you.  (Though I was a bit unhappy with my alternative acrylic supplier delivering a "non-glare" piece for the Big Dipper shot.  I think it actually interferes with seeing the rather dark, nighttime print, but there is no time to change it now.)

The first results of sophisticated third party fade testing ought to be out mid-October.  It'll be interesting to see how 100% Eboni carbon does in the test.

I'm sorry I was not there to meet you.  I'll be at the gallery (1029 State Street, Santa Barbara, CA) for the "First Thursday" receptions, 5 - 8 pm Oct. 1 and Nov. 5.
