The following day the exhibition was open to the public, but I couldn’t be there because I had flown up to Auckland to meet Steve and the bus at Hampton Downs race meeting.
My wife went along, and was quite happy with the number of people we had through the door. Considering that the advert only ran once in the local paper, and the showhome is in a cul-de-sac rather than on a main road, I was pleased with the turnout we had.
The feedback I had was very positive, and the experience was definitely worthwhile.
Although a wide variety of people looked at the photographs, they seemed to like the same images. The ones most frequently commented on were the monochrome/colour reflection of Jerusalem,

the mud buggy,

the sheep,
and the panoramic still shot of the Watt Fountain in Wanganui.
