Sue Henry- Tennessee, U.S.A.

For as long as I can remember I have been involved with the arts.

Upon my retirement from a highly rewarding career as a music educator and professional musician I was looking for a new creative and artistic outlet.  Remembering the fun times with photography my now grown son and I had experienced many years ago, I chose photography as my medium and purchased a new DSLR camera.  The rest is history!

I read every photography book I can get my hands on, attend photography classes and workshops as frequently as I can, spend way too much time on the internet viewing and enjoying the work of others, and, like so many, have been totally bitten by the photography bug!

Unlike many people who use photography to record memories, I strive to use photography as a tool for creating art.   My passion for finding beauty in what may be sometimes considered unexpected places is very evident to the viewer.  Nature, rust, and intimate details of common objects found in our amazing world often become the subjects of my images; images which frequently are made from a more abstract perspective.   I enjoy experimenting with unique photographic techniques and effects, both in-camera and through post processing.

On my photography blog (Sue Henry Photography) I frequently will pair a thought provoking quote with an image which often brings a poetic side to a given image.
