This will give you an idea of what will be included in this lecture:

Join internationally respected photographer John Sexton for an educational, informative, and entertaining audio-visual presentation, as he shares his images and insights from his forty-year photographic career. Known for his elegant, finely crafted, large format black and white photographs, Sexton has been an important part of the legendary photographic community on the Monterey Peninsula since he moved here nearly thirty-five years ago to accept the position as Photographic Assistant to legendary photographer Ansel Adams.

An articulate speaker with a delightful sense of humor and a wealth of photographic expertise, this presentation will transport viewers “on location,” as John shows a number of his well-known images. In addition, he will speak about the amazing photographic heritage on the Monterey Peninsula, and share images and insights from photographers who called this spectacular area home, including Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, Brett Weston, Wynn Bullock, Morley Baer, Henry Gilpin, Richard Garrod, Robert Byers, Al Weber, and others.

The talk will also include examples and anecdotes drawn from his six-year close working relationship with Ansel Adams as Adams’ Photographic and Technical Assistant, and Consultant. Images by both Sexton and Adams will be transformed on the screen from the negative to the final print, progressing through the various creative steps in the evolution of an expressive photographic print. Attendees will gain both information and inspiration from this lively presentation.

Anne and I look forward to seeing some old friends, and making a number of new friends in our own backyard.

John
