It was the advent of digital photography that caused me to become serious about moving beyond snapshots and automatic cameras. Travel photography is my strongest interest area, especially as retirement from teaching at Penn State has freed up time to visit new places. Another strong interest is documentary photography such as street scenes, sports, or community events. Landscapes and macro photography are also passions, and I experiment with creative abstracts from natural surroundings as well as monochrome conversions. I am a past President of the State College Photo Club and currently serve as Youth Showcase Coordinator and Co-Webmaster for the club. I also serve as Chair for the Photo Travel Division of the Photographic Society of America (PSA). My photos have been accepted and shown in more than 60 international exhibitions sponsored by PSA and the Federation Internationale de l’Arte Photographique (FIAP). I live in State College with two cats and my husband John Larson. I can be reached at cmtodd@psu.edu.
