The afternoon of Aug 2 at FUEL Montlake, you can be among the first to see Larry Hubbell’s stunning photographic art show, “Where Nature Lives.” Not only that, you can join him for an informal chat between 1 and 4 p.m, AND buy some of his photos too. Larry, a deeply committed naturalist, believes “that if we observe and intertwine our lives with the wild creatures around us, then we are more likely to protect and preserve them.” He thinks of his photography as a way to engage us in the lives of the creatures around Union Bay—the waters of our Montlake neighborhood. Through his Union Bay Watch blog photographs & narratives, we’ve met Eva & Albert, our bald eagles, and Elvis & Priscilla, our pileated woodpeckers. They’ve become beloved residents because of Larry’s weekly post alerts on the Montlake Flyer. Soon he’ll have you caring about the little Anna’s humming bird you see in the accompanying photo too.
So, come on over to FUEL on Sunday afternoon. Get yourself an iced coffee drink, peruse the 16 photos of the show, and sit down to talk with Larry about his art and his commitment to “harmony between humanity and nature.” You might even find out how he manages to be at just the right time and place, with the right equipment to capture the wildlife of Union Bay—“where nature lives in the city.”
This art show opening is part of Montlake Unabridged, sponsored by your Montlake Community Club.
