tate liverpool, here I come! Tweet

my love will go on, originally uploaded by gorgeoux.

The tiny email below, pertaining to the gorgeous photo above MADE MY DAY. I'm jumping around the house with joy, though contained enough not to scare this silent neighborhood (boring, but then I can sleep undisturbed at any hour, should I afford that luxury one day). Anyway.

You've been sent a Flickr Mail from Tate Gallery :: Colour Chart Congratulations!

Dear gorgeoux,

We’re delighted to let you know that your image - my love will go on http://www.flickr.com/photos/gorgeoux/2897006516/ has been selected from the Colour Chart group pool to appear in the Colour Chart poster.

Would you like us to display your real name alongside your Flickr name in the gallery? If so please let us know the name you’d like to appear. And please let us know your postal address so we can send you a copy of the poster.

Congratulations again,
Tate

So how is this after that hilarious kerfuffle with San Pellegrino? Let me try it: I'LL BE ON AT TATE. No, better yet: I'LL BE ALL OVER LIVERPOOL. And a bit of London, methinks. Woohoo! When the poster arrives, in a couple of weeks, I'll pop a bubbly. And another one, perhaps, when I make it to Liverpool next year, for the first time yet, to see the Colour Chart exhibition. Who would have thought, Liverpool and bubbly!

To family, friends, and companies who encouraged me over the years and gave me films, attention, and cameras (to play with or for good), a big big THANK YOU followed by a chain of loud shrieks of excitement. And then? I'm hours away from receiving my first SLR ever, from my first eBay bid ever, and paying back a generous supporter.

Internet, I'm oozing happiness :D

A very belated update: the poster! Ta-daaa!
