Scarecrows Among Us

Monte Nagler Photography Workshop

Monte Nagler believes that photographers should communicate feelings that are inside them.

Great photographers make visible what others can only sense and Monte is a master at capturing emotions and allowing other to sense what he experienced with his photographs.

Monte is a noted writer, lecturer and teacher of photography.  He has written three highly successful photography books: "How To Improve Your Photographic Vision", "Statements of Light" and "Monte Nagler's Michigan".

Monte's photographs have won numerous awards and are found in many private and public collections around the country.  In addition, the State of Michigan Senate and House have honored him with proclamations for his contributions to fine art photography.

Live Music with Bob Monteleone

Catch Bob & his trusty Seagull or Taylor acoustic guitar. As much as he loves the give & take of other musicians, playing solo gives Bob the freedom to take off in any direction, any time. He's more likely to play Neil Young, Radiohead and other personal favorites as well as original songs.
