The Art of Photography


On of my favourite aspects of Exposure is the willingness of its organizers to be open to all forms of photography.

From images made with pinhole cameras to the most recent digital wizardry, you're likely to find it at one of the participating venues under the umbrella of the Festival.

A category of photography that often gets a bad rap is adventure photography. But when I recently viewed a photograph Mark Gallup took of a skier caught up in an avalanche I was once again reminded of how powerful a statement can be made when a talented photographer and the forces of nature collide.

This work and many others will be included in a Whyte Museum exhibition titled Out There! during Exposure 2010 throughout February.
