Photographer Bill Lazar will explore the fascinating ways cameras interact with time and demonstrate various techniques using equipment and visuals. Highlights include capturing frozen motion, creating silky effects with long exposures of waterfalls or ocean waves, revealing starlight from our galaxy and beyond, expanding the light spectrum to unveil infrared wavelengths, and using intentional camera movement for abstract interpretations of scenes. Audience questions are warmly encouraged.
