Wet Feather by Tony Beaver

Photography by Paul Lange
Paul Lange, a prominent fashion photographer in NYC for 25 years, relocated to New York's Hudson Valley in 2004 to concentrate on portraiture and fine art photography--a natural progression from the celebrity portraits, beauty and editorial location work for which he is known.  His new work explores a variety of natural subjects:  landscape, birds, and flowers; concentration on their anthropomorphic similarities and the painterly effects that can be created in-camera from classical and realistic representation to abstraction, without exaggerated enhancements or manipulations in Photoshop.

Photograph by E. Mangle
Elizabeth Mangle’s photographs and oil paintings are inspired from actual Adirondack wilderness landscapes.  She has canoed, backpacked, or bushwhacked into very remote areas of the north woods.  Their beauty inspires her to capture the moments on film or on a canvas.  Elizabeth’s “real” day job is to conserve the natural resources of Hamilton County, in the heart of the Adirondack Park.  With the rest of her time, she enjoys the resources that she works so hard to protect.

Photograph by Ray Palmer
Ray Palmer is a photographer specializing in landscapes and wildlife. He works in film format to record both planning and chance in nature exploration. He has extensively photographed the Adirondack High Peaks area and has shot extensive hikes and outdoor excursions in Montana and Wyoming including the Yellowstone/Teton complex; Glacier National Park; the Beartooth-Absorokas; from the White Mountains to Acadia and Maine; the desert and high country of the Four Corners states of the Southwest; into California and the Pacific Northwest, Alaska, Costa Rica and Caribbean destinations. Hopefully the images evoke a memory for the observer—perhaps not the same waterfall, sunset or wild encounter—but a window to another experience, a prod to wanderlust, and a reminder that the earth’s treasures need our appreciation.
