The 5th District Court of Appeals has built a new facility in Fresno California.
I was invited to submit photographs of the "California Landscape" for review.
twenty seven of my photos have been chosen and will be part of a permanent
display in the new facility. All twenty seven photographs will be printed at 20"x30" !

Karen from Perfect Frame in Fresno is framing all of the pieces...she drove down
from Fresno last week with the mats so I could sign them. They hung the photos the next day.
Later that same week the Governor toured the facility.

The mats were linen....really nice...I'm sure the frames will be too.

According to Karen the inside of the new building is supposed to resemble Yosemite..
Lot's of granite, etc. that explains why they chose so many Yosemite photos.

The photos the appellate court justices chose are here...

There will be a reception for the photographers and press in November

Congratulations Michael. A great honor.

That is one awesome collection of photographs. I'll have to try and visit this new facility to see the prints in person.
