This really allowed me to get the feel of Miniatura Autumn 2010 in its great variety and although my personal preference went to certain stands rather than others, I was able to appreciate the works of all the artisans.

My 'mission' started really well with very accommodating and very friendly exhibitors. Besides sharing a little chat about their creations or learning about specific techniques, many of them very graciously allowed me to take a picture of their stand. But I soon realized that the very large number of visitors was like a tidal wave and I could not distract the exhibitors from potential sales. Taking pictures was obviously a rather difficult exercise with people constantly moving around to have a closer look at these wonderful miniatures - just like myself!
