Behind the Scenes: Clyde Butcher’s Venice Gallery

Recently I had the privilege of meeting Clyde Butcher and touring his darkroom and gallery in Venice Florida. He is a large-format camera photographer known for wilderness photography of the Florida  landscape. He began his career doing color photography before switching to large-scale black-and-white landscape photography after the death of his son. Clyde strongly advocates for conservation efforts. He uses his work to promote awareness of the beauty of natural places.
