Re: Mounting?

Ken,

Have you mounted the photo behind glass yet?

I'm sure if you place it in a frame with a good stiff backing board, 
the photo will look great.

I use that stuff peg-board is made of, only it's smooth and doesn't 
have the holes. I forget what the "technical" name is, but I bought 
it at HomeDepot.
