My happy story for the day, week, and year:
Last year whilst on our honeymoon, my wife and I visited the Ogunquit Museum of American Art (
http://www.ogunquitmuseum.org/) in Ogunquit, Maine. While there we saw an exhibit by a photographer named Conrad Marvin. (You can see some of his work here:
http://www.campbellsteele.com/New_artists/conrad.htm) I was totally stunned by his work. I thought at first that I was looking at an Ansel Adams. I did come to find out that Conrad Marvin was a student of Ansel Adams.
This year, with our first anniversary approaching, my wife just informed me that she is getting me my favorite print from that exhibit, entitled Bibury, for an anniversary gift. It’s quite a pricey gift and I was floored. Anyway, just thought I would share.
