Monthly Presentation: "Weather" by Ben Williamson
Artist bio:
Maine photographer Benjamin Williamson isn't your traditional landscape photographer. Instead of seeking places devoid of human presence, he likes to showcase our relationship to the environment through images that include man-made objects. A lifelong love of history and the weather have combined in images that feature classic Maine and New England scenery in beautiful light and unusual conditions. Williamson was the photo editor and staff photographer for Down East Magazine for
6 years. He leads photography workshops across the country.

Presentation Description:
Weather plays a major role in every photograph made outdoors. That's because our primary light source, the sun, is filtered and shaped by what's going on in the atmosphere. Weather changes light. Weather changes mood. Weather can help tell a story, or be a story all on its own. Weather is a variable that can add incredible flavor to outdoor photography. Learn how to use it!
Long before picking up a camera, Maine photographer Benjamin Williamson has been obsessed with weather. That passion has informed much of his work. This presentation aims to help you understand the weather to improve your own photography, either in your backyard, or when traveling. Don't miss it!
