| DIGITAL IMAGES David and Stephanie Salter David's Biography My interest in photography dates back to the 1960's when I built my own darkroom and experimented with black and white images. The digital revolution rekindled my interest in photography with the computer replacing the darkroom. Toward the end of my long career as a biologist and college professor, I made many digital images of a very wide range of biological specimens--both macro and microscopic. Since retirement, my wife and I have traveled from Baja California to Alaska photographing wildflowers, wildlife and landscapes. I have a special fondness for the great diversity of wildflowers and the many challenges offered by bird photography. Stephanie's Biography Since retirement from over 20 years as an ICU & open-heart nurse, Stephanie has joined her husband, David, in pursuit of interesting photographs and running Digital Images. Her favorite lens is Canon's versatile L-Series 100 to 400 mm zoom. PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS: 11/09 Best of Show, First & Second Places-- Morongo Art Colony/Chaparral Artist Show Salter Website: HERE |
| ARNIE KAMINSKY My interest in environmental and landscape photographer began as a youth. I have been intrigued by the opportunities nature provides for the unusual, beautiful and inspiring. I have completed a digital photography class at the College of the Desert and I currently serve as a photographer for the Sun City Palm Desert’s Homeowners’ Association’s Photography Committee. I am a native Californian and I have lived in the Coachella Valley for nearly seven years. I try to find varied locations in the area to photograph. I have shot in Joshua Tree, Idyllwild, the Salton Sea, the Wildlife Preserve in Palm Desert and many other locations in and out of the Coachella Valley. My photographs include the usual of a flower or mountain to the unusual a heap of beer bottles to a still life at the top of the tram. Click on images for larger view I am looking forward to visiting with you at the Festival in Bermuda Dunes! |
