I got the "kindness" picture printed 10x10 onto bamboo. It's hanging in the kitchen. And, I took advantage of a sale with a professional lab I have been wanting to try and got my old barbed wire photo printed on canvas for the living room. 20x20. It feels a little conceited :) but I really love them!! The kindness one is everything I hoped it would be for its visual reminder of the concept. The barbed wire -- ohhh it's so great.. The blades of grasses are just illuminated with warm sunlight and the field looks endless. Looking at it brings such stillness and..I don't know! I remember taking that photo and how I felt at the time- so excited about photography and having fun being adventurous and courageous with it..add to that a quiet, country sunset with a soft breeze.  I also just love the symbolism in that one...the barbed wire always reminds me of pain and yet it is just blanketed in golden goodness. Like the pain is a little piece..just a piece of a glorious whole. Anyway, I'm so glad I finally got the nerve or the motivation to spend the money on printing these.
