Visit the MV Film Center’s Feldman Family Artspace through September 6th to view Doug Allen’s vibrant photography in the series “Salty Air & Island Days.” Meet the artist at his reception on Sunday, August 30th from 1-3PM.

Doug has been passionate about photography since he acquired his first SLR camera at 14 years old. He finds great joy in shooting sunrises and sunsets, cityscapes, and, most recently, street photography. Doug has honed his skills and developed his eye while transitioning from film to digital to shooting with a full frame/mirrorless camera. He has learned the importance of planning, patience and always being ready for that interesting shot.
