Methods of Phone Photography at Watermark Art Center

Bemidji, MN - Exhibiting artist and local photographer William Petersen will present on methods of working with phone cameras (primarily iPhone) and photo enhancements using the app "Snapseed" on Thursday, October 24 from 6 to 8pm at Watermark Art Center. Participants should be familiar with operating their phone and download the app prior to arriving at the presentation.

Petersen came to embrace the practice of digitally enhancing his photographs once he accepted that it would take decades to master the darkroom in order to produce compelling images versus pursuingelectronic digitally-altered images and getting amazing results almost right away. His exhibit "iPhone Artistry" is currently on display at the center. His work can be viewed online atwatermarkartcenter.org/iphone-artistry/. The exhibit was made possible with support from Paul Bunyan Communications.

Registration is not required and there is no charge to attend this presentation. For more information regarding events, classes and exhibits visit watermarkartcenter.org or call 218-444-7570.
