Workshops:
Mr. Zbinden has been a serious amateur photographer for over 50 years and has won several first and second places in various photographic contests. He was a finalist in the Photographer's Forum Magazine's National 2005 contest with over 21,000 entrants from sixteen different countries.
He describes his work as a study of light and how it affects the look and feel of everything around us. He works exclusively outdoors and photographs all things: wildlife, flowers, trees, landscape scenes, birds [which are his passion], and sometimes just plays with light and objects so the viewer is captured by a good feeling but does not know what it is that makes the picture.
Mr. Zbinden says that the joy of photography to him is that he is always searching for beauty in nature and attempting to capture it with his camera, and hopefully reproduce the scene or object in an exciting print. Simple things seem the best to him, a boat, a bird, a leaf that have just the perfect light. He claims that sometimes moving three inches will make a ho-hum photograph into a winner.
He claims that art is very subjective and he presents what pleases him and hopes that you too will find some joy in the prints.
