Through the Viewfinder: Mendocino Landscapes

Several of the photographers exhibiting their works in Grace Hudson Museum's current exhibition, "Through the Viewfinder: Mendocino Landscapes," will discuss modern photography in all its aspects during a panel discussion on Sunday, January 17. The discussion, which will take place at 2 p.m. in the museum's Public Room, will be free to the public and will be followed with refreshments.

 

The photographers, all masters of their crafts, will discuss current trends in photography, the differences between film-based and digital processes, and the various considerations involved in black and white versus color imaging. At press time the following artists had made firm commitments to participate in the panel: Peter W. Stearns of Ukiah (film, color), Tom Liden of Comptche and Ukiah (digital, color and sepia), Bill Brazill of Mendocino (film, black-and-white), and Jon Klein of Mendocino (digital, color). Rita Crane of Albion (digital,color) may also join the panel.
