NORWAY — Beth Francis, a photographer from Hebron, is exhibiting her work at Stephens Memorial Hospital through spring.

The exhibit is due, in part, to the Western Maine Art Group and was coordinated by WMAG Board President Irina Kahn. Photos are mostly outdoor and nature scenes in a variety of sizes, and prints of all photos on exhibit are available for purchase.

Francis said, “Honestly, I stumbled into photography. Perhaps many people do. When it happened to me it was a bit of a surprise. I had been taking snapshots of my life’s events forever. Family and friends were accustomed to me arriving with my 35mm camera in hand to capture ‘the moment’ on film.”

Francis said her husband gave her a digital camera, “Little did he know he created a monster! Once I started ‘pointing and clicking,’ there was no turning back. I snapped shots of the pond and the boats and the loons and the sky, it was endless and joyful. My 23 photo albums are no match for the thousands of photos I now have stored categorically in i-Photo. My walls have become home to many of the photos and using my desktop publishing skills, I’ve created calendars for friends and family. They all encouraged me to share my photos with the public.”
