SUMMARY:ONLINE Speaker - Liz Guertin "Tangled\, Twisted Tree Photography"
DESCRIPTION:Liz finds wonder in the idea that nature and the physical world are far more complex than our senses allow us to experience. Science tells us we’re made of cells\, cells made of atoms\, and that trillions of subatomic particles pass through us every second. Trees converse with each other over fungal “phone” networks; creatures have ultraviolet properties; dogs and elephants hear above and below the octaves we can hear. So much is happening beyond our perception that reality as defined by our senses\, or even by science\, can’t come close to uncovering the mysteries. Liz works with the process of in-camera multiple exposures to explore the intricate tapestry\, infinite\, abstract\, and full of complexity. She does this traveling around the world with her lenses and beloved dog\, Buster!

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Speaker - Nic Stover "The Power to Create"
DESCRIPTION:Nic is a lifelong entrepreneur who turned “Professional” photographer in 2020.  This allows him to spend 90 or so days a year in the field and has taken him to all 7 continents.  While he enjoys travel and exploration it is often the places he gets to return like the Canadian Rockies\, High Sierra of CA\, or Desert Southwest of the US that hold the most value for him on his own creative journey. \nNic works daily on a mission to “help nature photographers\, who are interested in deeper connections\, create more impactful images\, so they can confidently and consistently express themselves.”  It his belief that we choose the craft of or the appreciation of photography to deepen our connection to ourselves\, others\, or the natural environment.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Speaker - Marianna Armata "Multiple Exposures & Triptychs"
DESCRIPTION:My deep visual focus led me to a career as a graphic designer\, illustrator\, and photographer. My background in graphic design naturally influences my photographic style. I specialise in macro photography because it reveals hidden details we often overlook in the Big Picture. My childlike curiosity fuels my passion for discovering and sharing the unseen beauty around us. Through my work\, I aim to show how all creatures\, even the smallest\, are interconnected and part of a greater whole. I enjoy sharing my passion with photo clubs through online presentations and hands-on workshops.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Speaker - Angie McMonigal "Distilling the Essence of Architecture"
DESCRIPTION:Angie is a fine art and commercial architecture photographer based in Chicago\, striving to bring a detailed\, thoughtful perspective to her work\, whether for clients or through the workshops she leads. Having grown up surrounded by nature yet fascinated by the big city she’s called home for more than two decades\, she brings the meditative calm of her upbringing to a terrain that’s always transforming. Drawing from her education in the microsciences (molecular biology\, microbiology\, virology) her focus is more frequently on bold architectural details rather than sweeping cityscapes\, creating images that celebrate those unexpectedly iconic elements hiding in plain sight. \nShe frequently works with art consultants\, designers\, brands\, architectural firms\, and private collectors\, creating images that draw out the organic interplay between design\, structure\, environment\, and society. \nPublication credits include Chicago Magazine\, National Geographic\, New York Times\, Wall Street Journal\, Forbes\, and Architectural Digest. Exhibitions by galleries in Chicago\, Los Angeles\, New York\, Barcelona\, and other destinations.
