About Chuck Trotter

Originally trained in the Ansel Adams style of Black and White photography using a Sinar 4 x 5 view camera, Trotter received his photographic education at Foothill and DeAnza Colleges in the bay area of California during the 1970s. Trotter remarked, “I recently have 'discovered' color.” While he loved the allure of large format photography and the mystical appearance of images in a traditional darkroom, he recently purchased his first digital camera, challenging himself “to see beyond” the natural landscape he had become comfortable within; to explore a new environment the urban landscape and seek out color as a vital component of those images.
