Noel Kerns
Noel Kerns is a photographer specializing in capturing Texas’ ghost towns, decommissioned military installations, and industrial abandonments at night. His background is in large-format, black & white photography, which has proven to be a perfect launching pad into the art of photographing our world in darkness.
For Kerns, night photography is an interesting and addictive dichotomy; the purity and natural beauty of photographing under a bright, full moon, and at the opposite end of the spectrum, the creativity and power of the virtual blank canvas that is laid before him as he "light paints" an interior scene.

Guy Reynolds
Guy Reynolds dedicated twenty-four years of his life to newspaper photography. Ten of those years, he worked as a photo editor at The Dallas Morning News. Walking with his infant son to entertain him provided the impetus to start shooting again and so the photographer started taking photographs using a plastic Holga camera, which was a departure from his usual news photojournalism that required shooting with state-of-the-art gear. The rediscovery of the fun of shooting vintage-looking images through the viewfinders of old cameras has become the artist’s passion.
Reynolds recently started scanning the binders full of negatives from his newspaper jobs in Austin, Winston-Salem, Baton Rouge and Indianapolis where all work was done on film. In this exhibition, the artist is displaying a collection of images from his recent Digital Pinhole Series.
