Tony Sweet Seminar to be Hosted by CMPG!

Tony Sweet

Nature and landscape photographer Tony Sweet will present Fine Art Photography and the Digital Edge on Saturday, January 10, from 1 – 4 PM in the Chapel at Chapelgate Presbyterian Church. Admission is $10 in advance, $15 at the door. CMPG club members pay only $7.50!

Tony’s work is published on calendars, post cards, posters, annual reports, greeting cards, catalogs, and electronic mediums. His fine art prints are exhibited in private and corporate collections throughout the United States.

After 20 years as a professional jazz artist, Tony changed careers and directed his creative juices towards nature photography. The improvisational, spontaneous, and abstract nature of jazz are also integral elements of nature photography.

Tony conducts his Visual Artistry photography workshops throughout the continental United States. Tony’s articles and images are featured in Shutterbug and Rangefinder magazines, and is a contributor to Nikonnet.com. He is a staff writer for Nikon World magazine.

He has authored three books on the art of photography: Fine Art Nature Photography (’02), Fine Art Flower Photography (’05), and Fine Art Nature Photography: Water, Ice, Fog (’07). A fourth book in the Fine Art Photography series is due to be released in January of 2009.

We hope that Tony’s new book will be available in time for him to bring some with him when he visits.
