Let me know if there's anyone in the area who wants to join me at this show. I might need a shoulder to cry on.

Oh wow, there are absolutely the best of the best classics that are going to be on view there, from the links you provided. Take plenty of tissues, then get out there and take some photos... who knows, someday? I attended a photo exhibit at the Philadelphia Museum of Art awhile back ... Cartier-Bresson, Mary Ellen Mark, Man Ray ... spent hours there, marvelling at the creativity and talent those folks have/had. Enjoy.

This is worthy of a 1000 mile road trip. Been trying to get away but looks like it can't happen until November - this exhibit might push us in that direction... Thanks!
