This presentation will be an introduction to the basics of waterfall photography and will cover how to find waterfalls, selecting the right gear to photograph waterfalls; evaluating a waterfall scene in preparation to photograph it; composition of the image; setting the exposure; safety; and using waterfalls for environmental portraiture.

Kris Johnson is well known to the Photographic Society of Northwest Arkansas, and has recently returned from achievement of his MFA at the Indiana University.

“To Which We Return” is a body of work examining fear and mortality. The series makes use of an alternative darkroom photographic process known as Mordancage to alter black and white self-portraits. The Mordancage process degrades and disrupts photographic materials through a chemical process of decay and destruction. Cracked surfaces and veils of the photographic emulsion dislodge during the process, making each photograph entirely unique.

Dena Creamer’s love of Arkansas and the Ozarks inspired her to capture joy within the natural world through photography, including landscapes, night-scapes, flower, and bird photos.  Her award winning photographs recently earned a solo exhibition at Fort Smith Regional Art Museum. This work, ‘Arkansas Impressions’, is a journal from conventional digital photography to impressionistic work, and Intentional Camera Movement.

PSNWA is pleased to be returning the Distinguished Photographer Series to the Shiloh Museum’s Meeting Hall, for an in person-and-online-event through the ZOHO web meeting channel.
