Serena Parente Charlebois presents-
There and Back Again
This program describes how I tell the story of my wanderings and travels in a way that, I hope, allows others to experience the journey, delight in the details and explore other cultures and landscapes through my eyes and photographic artistry.

Artist inspiration:
"I fell in love with the art of photography when I was just 9 years old. The rich memories captured and claimed forever on paper fascinated me."
"I try to compose and create images as if they were a song. I want my compositions to flow and engage and be a wonderful piece of art, that makes you always want to come back and experience again and again."
April 8th- Invitational Exhibit opening
Lindsay Elgin presents- How to Evaluate Your Own Work- This presentation will be a general discussion of editing images – not in terms of image processing, but how to approach evaluating your own work. We'll cover both technical standards for images, as well as more complicated considerations for determining which images work, and which, inexplicably, fall flat. We'll be looking at how to make good decisions about choosing images in general terms, as well as for exhibits and portfolios.
