WESTERN IDAHO FAIR
Thank you all for participating, both helping and showing, this year 2023 at the Western Idaho Fair. Congratulations to those placing at the fair and to all those who entered their prints. It is always hard to decide what to enter, print your images, mount your images, then transport them to the fair. Please let us know how we can help you for 2024.

Landscape photography is one of the art forms where the canvas is already laid out in front of the photographer. It becomes the challenge to make the canvas into the artist’s vision. Instructors of photographic composition say, among other things, that it’s the art of what not to include in the picture that makes a compelling visual expression.
