The following set of pictures where taken on
October 6, 2001 which was when the US Chess Hall of Fame opened its doors
to the general public for the first time. There will be a much more formal
Grand Opening planned for sometime in December. I hope to attend at the formal
grand opening so that I can take pictures of the live chess match with people
dressed up as the chess pieces.
For the pictures on this page, I took the pictures with
my digital camera, a Kodak DC3400 with 32 MB of RAM. I suggest that if someone
does decide to take their camera to take photos to remember to take the
flash off since it was reflected a few times in some of the images and ruined
some others pictures that might have been on this page.
After bringing the digital camera home, I then used Adobe
Photo Deluxe to obtain the pictures from the digital camera and put them
onto the computer. The images were purposefully lowered in quality in order
to keep most images under 100K. I will be doing some more editing of these
pages in the next few days to add more specific page titles and text when
the opportunity permits.
