People were really enjoying the pictures, praising each and every one of them which gave the organizers quite some joy.It can be said that how many people visited the exhibition while it was held in the bookstore because I wasn't there every day... When they transferred it to Dino's faculty - they were a kind of hitting the rock spot - there was a strike going on (professors amongst them) so no that many people actually came... quite a small number of them where there...
