This
past spring, The Tibetan Photo Project was able to upgrade Lobsang
to an Olympus Stylus point and shoot camera. This will go a long
way in making it possible to create higher quality and bigger
enlargements for future exhibits. This gallery offers a look at
a sampling from the first 8 rolls sent by Lobsang.
After
seeing the exhibit at Antioch University in Santa Barbara, Tom
Stone donated a Pentax Spotmatic that went to Dharamsala and will
be used for production stills for ÒVoices in Exile.Ó (See links
to ÒVoices in ExileÓ in galleries 13 and 18 on the menu to the
left.)
Philip
Deslippe has donated a Nikon 6006 to Lobsang that will further
continue the effort to improve the quality of his photos.
Lobsang
is now trying to mount and create shows of 8x10 prints in India.

donation. If you would like to help Lobsang build his exhibits
in India, drop us an email at
