Unexpected: A Black/White Portfolio by Will & Beth Enos
Exhibition Dates: December 4-31, 2024
Reception Date: Saturday, December 7th from 12:30pm to 3:30pm
The stark beauty of the high desert, the imposing crest of the Sierra Nevada, and the variety provided by a true four season environment. For all photographers these attributes offer an abundance of color photographic opportunities.
Our vision offers a different way to be looking at color and the subjects within. We have narrowed our view in order to see beyond what is an expected photograph. When we are drawn into a scene that initially interests us, we take time to look deeper and uncover the feelings that will make it a compelling photograph.
How do the light and shadow play with each other? How does an interesting foreground transition visually into the background? At this point we begin to see areas of color being simplified into grayscale. No color to cloud or change our minds about what the photograph represents. Only light, shadow and varying shades of gray bounded by the two dimensional box that it lives in. Now it becomes the “Unexpected: A Black / White Portfolio”.
Gallery Hours: Tuesday – Friday 10:00am to 4:00pm and Saturday 12:00pm to 4:00pm
