In which I do a good job of not spreading Christmas cheer
We hit the Imperial Rome Exhibit at Fernbank a second time. The exhibit is leaving early January so not too long left to see it if you haven’t and are in the area.

Mask of Tragedy, Imperial Rome Exhibit, December 2006

The Imperial Rome Exhibit is currently running at Fernbank. We went by today. It’s a good one, well laid out, and an awful lot to take in.
There were no signs saying nay about flash photography (quite often you can’t take pics at all of special exhibits at Fernbank) but I went ahead with available light source and did my best to suck in breath, let it out and brace the camera. Doctored afterwards to get rid of the backgrounds and give a sepia cast.
I was especially pleased to see the Tragic Mask.
There was jewelry, glassware, mosaics etc. and it certainly merits a return visit before the exhibit leaves in early January.
