Newport Photo Guild November Meeting

November 20 - Ron Rosenstock  www.ronrosenstock.com  
Ron has been a very popular presenter and this is his third presentation to Photo Guild 

Worcester's Ron Rosenstock sees himself as a bridge between two distinct generations of photographers, those of the "silver" age and those of the "digital" age.

The advent of digital photography opened a whole new world of possibilities for the photographic artist, allowing him to experiment and play with, manipulate and mold, his work like never before to reach his goals. But there is still a quaint beauty to that "older", original form of photography. There is a truly authentic and natural feel to a piece that digital photography cannot seem to achieve, and since a truly exceptional piece that can be properly classified as "fine art" took so much more time, struggle and effort to produce, the silver age photographers truly needed a vision and a passion for the art, something that those artists brought up in the relative ease of the digital age may forget.
