Ongoing	During Library hours	Art in the Library. Her show, titled Intimate Landscapes, is available for viewing during library hours. The photos are part of an ongoing series of work that explores beauty that can be discovered when you look very closely at the plant world. Nina finds that deeply contemplating the light and the complex forms within each flower and leaf has a calming effect and restores her sense of awe at the beauty of the world. This is something we can all use during these troubling times! On Christmas when she was nine years old, Nina received the gift of a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye box camera. She began to photograph right away with black and white film and became a very serious child photographer. This intense interest led her to study photography in Boston after college with a specialty in documentary photography. She worked in the Boston area as a free-lance photographer, photography teacher and exhibited her work widely. Later while living in Buffalo, NY and raising a family, Nina had her own business as a corporate and industrial photographer as well as doing free-lance work for the local newspaper. She moved to Maine in the 1990s and was employed in a local photography shop in the Rockland area. Nina now lives in Steuben with her partner and together they operate a seaweed business. She enjoys photographing landscapes, seascapes, the activities of the seaweed harvest and all the apprentices and visitors that come looking for an ocean adventure. Plants, lichens, moss and the sea are some of Nina’s favorite subjects and macro photography is especially helpful in studying the intricate details of the plant world. Many more of Nina’s images can be seen in the gallery of the Maine Seaweed website, www.theseaweedman.com and on the Maine Seaweed Instagram page.
