NEVADA CITY, Calif. April 22, 2021 – The newest photography exhibit from the Nevada County Camera Club entitled “Colorful and Historic Buildings of Nevada County” will open on Saturday, May 1 at Nevada City Picture Framing and Restoration.  “This show celebrates the historic, dramatic and often quirky architecture of the county.  When you’ve lived here for a long time, or anywhere really,  you may take your surroundings for granted.  We hope that this show will encourage us all to see these wonderful buildings with new eyes,” stated Ellen Davis, Gallery Exhibit Coordinator for the Nevada County Camera Club.

Twenty-five photos showcase buildings in various locations of the county. “Architecture photography is often thought of as very formal, more technical than creative, which can be intimidating to photographers.  Although it was up to the artist to choose their subject and how they wanted to present it, a creative approach was highly encouraged.  I’m delighted to see such a broad variety of photographs in this show. Some made excellent use of light and weather conditions and others took advantage of unique or sinister moments. Some images are beautifully formal and others take on a delightfully wild perspective. There are little vignettes that make you wonder where was the photo taken and what is happening,” continued Davis.

Melissa Goldman, owner of Nevada City Picture Framing and Restoration at 571 Searls Ave in Nevada City invites visitors to view the show during open hours on Tues, Wed, and Thurs from 12:00 noon to 5:00 pm.  And Saturdays from 11:00 – 3:00.
