Thanks and next question, spacing

Thanks and next question, spacing

2008-01-20 by namibiajohnston

First I would like to thank everyone who took the time to answer my 
question about hanging height in a gallery setting,  I should have 
asked this as part 2 of the same question, what about spacing?  Is 
there a ratio of print width to space between prints?

Tahnk you again and if any of you ever make it to Omaruru Namibia I'll 
show you around Namibias first dedicated photography gallery......

No.  And it doesn't always need to be the same.  Some images should 
clump together.  Sometimes extra space helps.  Regular spacing is 
more typical in large simple gallery spaces, but even there it's an 
art and not a science.
