Pawcatuck, CT resident Tim Quackenbush discovered a love of photography about 20 years ago, focusing on landscapes. He hopes his images surprise and delight viewers with the beauty of the natural world. He likes to explore light, long exposures, movement and mood in his compositions to create unexpected moments in nature that tell a story. To quote Tim, “A photograph is a memory that becomes a story.”

Come discover his work at the bookstore during October’s First Friday Art Crawl - Friday, October 3rd from 5-8PM. We look forward to seeing you!
