If you would like to purchase any one of these prints, we have very high resolution images available (but not uploaded here due to size constraints.) We would be happy to mail you a high quality 4x6 print, or email you the 3MB original file, for $5 per image, the same price we offered at the open house. Sale of the photos helps us pay for the materials used at the open house. Thank you for supporting us!
