July 23, 2024 - “Travel and Photographing the World” by Anita Oakley
Anita started photography while in college. While I was raising kids she shot mostly family pictures.
During her 25-year career at Microsoft she got hooked on travel working for about 5 years in the training department. They sent her to Australia, England, Germany, and South Africa.
In the late 1990s she got into photography in a serious way. She started combining travel with her passion for making images.
She says, “I’ve been fortunate to photograph in Venice, Bruges - the capital of West Flanders in northwest Belgium, Ghent - a port city in northwest Belgium, Svalbard - a Norwegian archipelago between mainland Norway and the North Pole, Kenya and Tanzania – both in East Africa.
She feels these far-reaching and exotic locations have added so much to her life experiences.
In this exciting program Anita will share some of the stories behind her images and how visiting other countries has enriched her life.
