Ready for the exhibit
This is one of my first fiber based prints. It is my first darkroom print to be truly exhibited in public

It is difficult to appreciate your print from this image, I can only just make out the depth, and so I would prefer to see this in all its glory before I can make judgement.
However, from personal experience, I have found that a black reflective frame against a white surround can sometimes draw attention away from the image and convey a feeling of formality ,( like a certificate on a wall) you must have a point of interest to compensate for this.
The use of a 'formal' frame is great for a Technical image, but I think this deserves something different.
Some on here will probably disagree, but they are entitled to do so.
Mounting a print in a Gallery is not just slapping it on a wall, it is an art form in itself. I am by no means a master of this, but I have many gifted friends whose opinion I value highly.
On a completely different note, from the content of your bookshelf, can I suggest ' A 1000 days, JFK in the White house' unless, you have already got a copy.

This was more about showing an accomplishment. A lot of people today don't print, mount and frame their images. This is my first finished image done with fiber based paper. If I want it critique for the photograph in this photograph I will post it. However, I apparently have not scanned the negative yet.
