And my Mom was so completely thrilled, she bought the piece long ago in Brooklyn, this really made...

Last night I picked up my latest - the fourth - framed piece from Gallery on Main. Yet again, an incredible job! Michelle's eye for selecting exactly the right mat colors and frame, and Shaun's masterful framing gave my most favorite photograph I ever shot, a 20X30 enlargement, the treatment it deserves. A couple of years ago we also bought a beautiful cedar chest that serves as our living room table. Shaun and Michelle are top notch professionals and incredibly nice people. I will not take my framing business anywhere else but...
