Rosemary-

You do nice work. I especially like photo #3 in your impressionist folder.

Good luck; I'll be waiting for the good news tomorrow...

Thank you and thanks for visiting my zen space #3 is one of the ones I am taking tomorrow a long with #1, #8 & #11. I had them printed on pearl paper and they are knock outs, better than I could have dreamed. I so hope I come home with less photos and good news Right now everything seems surreal but reality will be here soon enough

Thank you so much for your good luck wishes

Congrats on getting considered! I would love to see some of the work that is being looked at.

I feel so honored and blessed to have this shot, I just can't express how grateful I am

As far as signing, titling, or dating the front of your print, do what you want. If there is a way to do it, it's been done. I've seen no signatures, sigs on the mat, sigs on the mount, sigs on the print border, sigs in the image; all hanging in the same museum. Same with titles, dates, and series info. Do what you want.

Thank you for sharing this info with me. Makes me feel better about what I chose to do

Exciting news congrats !

I am so excited! Thank you very much

At the level that you are talking about here, I agree with Matt. It isn't a photograph, it's a piece of photographic art. You are the artist. I would suggest not getting carried away with it. You're new to the scene, so stay humble and let the image do the work. Until you become famous, your signature doesn't add to the art work. Even the likes of Ansel Adams signed, dated, and numbered a lot of his images on the reverse side.

Best of luck,
Brian

I am glad you shared your thoughts with me. I must say A Adams is one of my fav photogs
I agree about the sig being small and unobtrusive. It is about the art and not really about me.

<snip>I want them for my wall, lol he he he. <snip>What if they don't like my photos? How will I feel about that? <snip>

You answered your own question, before you asked it. Unless your intentionally working for, or trying to create art for someone else, you're working for yourself. If you like your work enough to jealously want it on your own wall, be happy and satidfied. It's absolutely wonderful if others like your work as much as you do, which is what really makes this oportunity wonderful.
I remember how I felt back in the days when I was taking photography courses at my local community college and entered several photos into contests at the schools gallery that were accepted. Just getting accepted was great. I actually won some 2nd and 3rd place ribbons which I still cherish the memory of, even though it was only a real local thing. I can imagine what you're going through. Be proud, be happy, and remember no matter what happens, your work is good enough to be considered.
Best of luck today,
Brian
