Clyde Butcher, Little Butternut Key 2

The goal of this exhibit is to explore where land meets water; where dirt, sand, or stone meet ponds, puddles, lakes, oceans, creeks, rivers and waterfalls. Promoting the art of nature photography, the Wildling is looking for artists who show attention to light, composition, depth of field and focus. It is also to provide an opportunity for artists to display their work, and for the public to view and purchase the excellent photographs being produced by these fine artists.
