The CHS Digital Photography Show:
Colors of Coronado is a vibrant, student-led art exhibition currently on display at the Coronado Public Library. Running through August, this seasonal installation spotlights the creative achievements of digital photography students from Coronado High School. Pieces center on the distinct hues and unique community charm of Coronado. Images demonstrate student mastery over design principles, advanced digital editing tools, and composition. "In addition to photos of the community, students chose to display food photography and ‘painting with light’ slow-shutter-speed images,” said instructor Anna Woerman.
The exhibit is open to the general public during regular operating hours with free admission.
Congratulations, Kassandra!
