The April 9 meeting of the Grand Canyon Photography will feature a presentation on nature photography by member and author Brad Adams.

The program will begin at 7 p.m. at the Gmeiner Art & Cultural Center in Wellsboro after a short business meeting.

When asked to describe his program, Adams said, “My presentation will concentrate on composition and DSLR camera usage. I will be using my book as a reference and also physical prints displaying specific topics being presented. I have great respect for nature and believe in preserving it for future generations. My hope is to entice the audience to explore the wilds of Pennsylvania with a new view and a new found respect for nature.”

Adams career started with teaching graphic arts and photography at Pequea Valley High School in Lancaster County for 15 years. It was during that time he started his photography business, Brad Adams Photography, primarily photographing weddings and family portraits.

He continued his teaching career at Thaddeus Stevens College in the visual field for 19 years. During that time he developed a passion for nature photography and published a book titled “The Nature of Photography.”
