Twenty-six photographers from all walks of life share their skill and passion for the art in Expressions at the Upper Yarra Arts Centre.
The annual exhibition presents a stimulating and diverse array of contemporary Australian photography by members of the Yarra Ranges Photographic Society (YRPS), some of whom have had recent success in national and international exhibitions.
Exhibition co-ordinator Rob Wagner said the collection represents favourite works of the photographers.
“You won’t find just one particular theme represented in Expressions,” Mr Wagner said.
“A wide variety of themes explored by society members make up the exhibition, including portraiture, landscape, flora and fauna, and monochrome, as well as creatively enhanced images, and much more.”
The YRPS, based at Coldstream Community Centre, has been assisting and guiding local photographers for 25 years and welcomes new members.
Mr Wagner said the society is an active club that provides its members with experiences and learning opportunities in all aspects of photography with a strong focus on encouraging and assisting beginner photographers.
Expressions is on show at the Upper Yarra Arts Centre, Warburton, until Tuesday, 2 May.
