PERMANENT EXHIBIT

I'm pleased to announce the completed installation of a permanent exhibit of six of my natural history photographs commissioned by Iowa State University.  These six photographs are of natural history subjects "as found" on the Iowa State campus in Ames, Iowa during 2006 and 2007.

The photographs are located on the Ground Floor of the Gerdin Business Building, home of the Iowa State University College of Business.  The building is open to the public during normal business hours and evenings, as well as most Saturdays. 

Visitors parking in the top-level metered parking of the East Campus Parking Deck will find the exhibit space immediately to the left upon entering the main doors facing the Gerdin Business Building east lawn.  Visitors entering the building via the west doors facing the Campanile clock tower, simply descend the granite stairs or elevator one level and turn right into the exhibit area.
