PHOTO: KEN HUBBARD KEN HUBBARD sponsored by Horses on the Beach with Tamron: Hubbard, Akoubian, Kemper and Langell | Field Workshop Ken Hubbard is the Field Services Manager and instructor for Tamron who has had nationwide gallery showings of his portrait and landscape photography. Ken turned his lens toward the American landscape, traveling extensively throughout the United States. Though he had never confined his photography to one genre, it was during this time that he realized the expressive potential and beauty of landscape photography. The results were a consistent output of breathtaking photographs that continually challenged the boundaries of the genre; a snow-covered buffalo staring ominously out of the frame, surreal rock forms in Joshua National Park that appear as if out of a sci-fi film, innumerable variations in light spilling through the depths of Antelope Canyon…Ken had found his calling. www.kenhubbardphotography.com Location: Frank B.
