It will be in Canada at the beginning of this year, then will go to USA, and should be in Austria in June 2001. Suitable high profile venues are sought worldwide. Prints are available for sale.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to today's photo exhibition Celebrating the Mountain Porter.

Today, we have trucks and trains doing the work of thousands of porters, but in the world's many remote and mountainous regions, the porter remains.
