Nicholas Roberti
For decades I have been enthralled and awed by the pleasure given by light and shadow. Everyone sees the things I photograph. My views and feelings are no better nor worse than the next persons. I use the camera as a kind of sketch book and in the darkroom try to create a final print that expresses my particular feelings. All of my works represent those attempts to recreate and share them. The toned gelatin silver print, with its rich, subtle and varied tones, is particularly suited for expression of those feelings. Of course, it is illusory as each is but a flat piece of paper. The creation of the illusion is my passion. There are no meanings, hidden or otherwise. All of my work is done by me, one print at a time. I hope that you will get as much pleasure from them as I.

Heather Middleton
Alfonso Lorenzana
Heather Middleton is a self-taught photographer whose work has taken off and has begun to gain recognition in the past few years. "Photography is my way of telling a story using the abstraction of black and white film to remove the colors of everyday life. I find my work constantly evolving as I develop or discover new techniques, and I am always searching for new ways to express that perfect idea that haunts my imagination."

Skip Middleton
Alfonso Lorenzana
"Classic form with a cutting edge," is how Skip Middleton's work has been described. Strong posing and lighting combine to show both the physical and inner strengths of his subjects. Beginning as a high school newspaper photographer, and through subsequent exploration, Middleton still works to refine his technique. Many of the WPA photographers of the 1930's, particularly Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange, have an influence on Middleton's work in their use of light and surface to tell a story.
