A Photographer’s Appreciation of Water
Karen Glosser is a fine art nature photographer whose work has led her to memorable places around the world. However, her native Western New York State remains her primary love and focus as she explores and captures the moody waves of Lake Erie, the serenity found at Chautauqua Lake and the silent woodlands near her home. Glosser shares her love of water not only through her photography, but also by encouraging people to get close to water, to appreciate water and to become active participants in protecting our wild waters. Karen’s talk will focus on her personal insights on why water means so much to her and how she captures the mood and emotion the natural world in her photography. For those who wish to bring a camera and ask about water photography, Karen will field questions at the end of the presentation.
Meet at the Lakeside porch of the Youth Activities Center near Heinz Beach

Blue Mind is "a mildly meditative state characterized by calm, peace, unity, and a sense of general happiness and satisfaction with life in the moment". It is brought on by time spent near, in, on, and under water. The 3rd on 3rd Gallery in Jamestown NY is located close to both Lake Chautauqua and Lake Erie and Jamestown also features a beautiful new urban river walk.
We invite you to come and “get your Blue Mind on” at this visually stunning celebration of water in all forms!
The Blue Mind groundswell was founded by marine biologist, Wallace J. Nichols who has spent much of his life with and is well known for, his work in sea turtle conservation. He wrote the book, Blue Mind - The Surprising Science That Shows How Being Near, In, On, or Under Water Can Make You Happier, Healthier, More Connected, and Better At What You Do.
The aim of this Blue Mind movement is to connect (or reconnect) people to water as a means of enriching their lives on an emotional, mental, spiritual, and social level. With this connection comes a deep love for our waters. (And by loving our waters, we then become good stewards of our waters.)
