Program: Photography by David Wong
David has been an active professional photographer for the past decades as a teacher, fine art artist, workshop leader, critic, and curator, as well as a working professional. His teaching portfolio includes teaching summer intensive photography classes at Vassar College in New York, The Crocker Art Museum, classes in Lincoln, Sacramento, Nevada County, and workshops in his studio. He has exhibited his prints at shows and galleries in California and at galleries in New York, Art Works Gallery in Grass Valley, CA and at For the Love of Art Gallery in Auburn.
David will show birds he has photographed from Costa Rica, East Africa, and locally. During his presentation, he will demonstrate his thinking in how to photograph birds and presenting them not only for identification but also in artful ways. His slide show will feature a variety of birds from raptors to bee-eaters posing and in flight. Birds in flight is a particular challenge for bird photographers and he will discuss his approach to capture the best photo during the presentation.
