Wednesday, May 10, 2017 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon 5 Sisters photographers display work at library By Sue Stafford Correspondent With their cameras, skilled photographers are able to capture moments in time that will never again be seen exactly the same way. In the May Friends of the Sisters Library art exhibit, members of the Sisters Photography Club are showcasing their own unique moments in time with familiar and for- eign landscapes, rodeo action shots, wildlife, animals, and birds, and people caught being themselves. Three Sisters residents – Brent MacGregor, Tom Davis, and Conrad Weiler – founded the club more than a decade ago. The club’s mem- bership now runs around 30 to 35. This is the 11th year the club has displayed at the library. Davis and Weiler both have entries in this year’s exhibit. Adult photographers of all ages, abilities, and interests are welcome at the club’s monthly meetings on the sec- ond Wednesday at 4 p.m. in the library community room, where members share their work and techniques. The more experienced members are always willing to help a novice photographer improve their skills. Each of Linda Ziegenhagen’s photographs is unique due to frames she makes from reclaimed barn- board, rusty barbed wire, and common household items like trays. One of her pho- tos hanging in the commu- nity room is an example of her “recycled frames.” The photograph of Drake Park is printed on canvas that is wrapped around the sides and framed with her hallmark wood and wire. We n d y B i r n b a u m ’s “Meeting in the Dust” is one in a series of three origi- nal sepia photos printed on metal. “Hummer’s Repose” by Lexie Bakewell is a stun- ning shot of a hummingbird at rest, a sight seldom seen. Most photographs in the exhibit are for sale. If inter- ested in purchasing one, fill out the form on the entry table in the library com- munity room and put it in the box located there. The artist will make contact and the photo will be avail- able when the show ends May 31. The club’s website is located at www.sistersphoto club.smugmug.com.
