New Art Showing: Instruments
Lorraine L. “Stratt” Stratton has been photographing since the late sixties, when she was in junior high. She currently teaches photography, yearbook and credit recovery classes at Clackamas High School southeast of Portland, OR. About her Instruments collection, Lorraine writes:
I’ve been photographing musical instruments for the past few years. Last spring (2008) I worked with one of my high school students on band instruments (clarinet, English horn, flute, tenor saxophone and oboe). He brought them from home and from the band room. I showed him how to use my light tent and macro lens then turned him loose. When he was done I took advantage of their presence and created my own images. He created his best work all year and I was inspired to continue my journey photographing instruments.
