Photographic artist Linda Alterwitz will present her Paths program at the Nevada Camera Club June 12 General Meeting.

The use of color and light creates a special depth that competes with the two dimensional surface of the prints. Linda's photographs have been exhibited in galleries throughout the United States. Additional information about Linda Alterwitz is available on her web site at http://www.lindaalterwitz.com/. The public is invited to the Nevada Camera Club Program Meeting and admission is free.
