This kind of work is the culmination of everything you learn about photography. More than that street photography is incredibly instructive. It teaches you patience; it teaches you how to see the world with new eyes.  Arguing for peace in London. © Damaso Reyes How do you capture a street you walk down every day? More importantly how do you make it interesting, not only to yourself but to someone who’s never walked down that street? These are but a few of the challenges the street photographer faces.  A wall of emotions in Vienna. So how do you do it? What is the secret? The answer is there isn’t one.

“This exhibition focuses on the visual appearance of, the manifestations of, or the individual explorations of God. Works should address what is the visage of God? How do we search for God? What do we find? And what do these findings reveal? This exhibition is open to traditional and non-traditional systems of belief and also seek those beliefs that challenge the notion of God and religion.” February 15 – March 18 The Kuhn Fine Arts Gallery is located off the main lobby at the east entrance of Ohio State Morrill Hall. The gallery is free and open to the public Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.
