\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you all for your patience while I built the Bishop Peak Portrait Project, a series of thousands of photos of San Luis Obispo\u2019s most prominent mountain. I started the project in November, 2015 with the construction of a weatherproof box for the camera and electronics, and then started shooting the photos in March, 2016.<\/p>\n

The photography continued for a year to the end of February, 2017 when I turned it off and removed the equipment from the roof of the Kennedy Library at Cal Poly.<\/p>\n

In the end, 365 of those photos were prepared and built into a large display for the Baker building at Cal Poly.<\/p>\n

During the months between the beginning and the end, I machined the panels from an aluminum laminate material called AluPanel, developed a system for machining the individual photos for the display, and cut those to fit. Then we put it together.<\/p>\n

The story starts here <\/a>if you want to go back to read all the details.<\/p>\n

This week Cal Poly Facilities workers put the panels up in the Baker Science Center at Cal Poly, and my colleague Rob Brewster (one of the technicians on the project) sent me photos.<\/p>\n

I hereby present the completed Bishop Peak Portrait Project:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

More photos will follow of course, but I\u2019ve never seen it, and will not be able to see it until late August when I return from my teaching post in Germany.<\/p>\n

I am very proud to see the results, and once again thank those who helped make the project happen:<\/p>\n
