Barbara Strigel is a photographer and book artist currently living in Vancouver BC.
She studied at the School of the Musuem of Fine Arts Boston then taught high school photography for over 20 years. Her images are constructed digitally using layers of scanned paper and paint. In the same way a painter works to render something essential about a subject, her process alters spatial relationships, emphasizing the figurative gesture and moving the particular toward the universal.

After a long career as an interventional radiologist, Norm Diamond is now a fine art photographer living in Dallas, Texas. His work explores themes of memory and loss. 
In May of 2017, Daylight Books published his monograph What Is Left Behind - Stories from Estate Sales. Diamond had visited hundreds of Dallas estate sales photographing the sadness, humor, and historical artifacts he found in the possessions left by one generation to the next.

Prints from this series have been shown in multiple museums and galleries, including the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, the Griffin Museum of Photography, and the Houston Center for Photography. The Afterimage Gallery in Dallas and the Cumberland Gallery in Nashville have hosted solo shows of this work. Based on this series, Diamond was a finalist in the Photolucida Critical Mass competitions of 2015 and 2016.

Jim Lustenader loves street photography for its cinematic character; combining elements of photojournalism, documentary and pure surprise to catch unguarded moments in a way that lets viewers relate on a humanistic level. He believes there are few things more interesting than human behavior in action.

Jim looks for the “click point” in a simple, evocative situation -- the visceral second that speaks to the heart with the humor, sadness, beauty or irony of daily life. People's eyes, dress, body language, relationships to inanimate objects and each other -- all can convey storylines that resonate.

Shot indoors or out, Jim’s photos are candid, intuitive, spontaneous; none are staged or manipulated. He shoots film because of its distinctive look, preferring black and white, as it reduces visual complexity, focuses the eye and stimulates imagination. 

Jim has been published in Black & White magazine, and had solo exhibitions at Umbrella Arts Gallery in New York, In An Instant Gallery in Florida, and Dartmouth College, and has been in over forty  juried exhibitions.
