Derry, New HampshireThe Art Gallery at LaBelle Winery announces the return of the celebrated exhibition “A Symphony of Light and Shadow: The Landscape Photography of Jeff Dachowski” at its Derry location. This breathtaking collection showcases Dachowski’s masterful black and white landscapes. His work captures the ethereal beauty of misty valleys, rolling hills and the interplay between light and shadow. The exhibition will be a long-term installation.

“A Symphony of Light and Shadow: The Landscape Photography of Jeff Dachowski” features an array of landscapes spanning multiple continents. Photographs in the exhibition include the rolling hills and cypress-lined roads of Tuscany; the coastline of Greece; and Denali, Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. Scenes from the Swiss Alps; Napa Valley; Tanzania; the Mount Washington Valley, the French Alps; and LaBelle Winery’s Amherst, New Hampshire, location will also be on view.

Working out of his studio in Bedford, New Hampshire, Dachowski holds multiple degrees from the Professional Photographers of America including a master of photography; a photographic craftsman honorary master of photography; and a master of wedding photography. Along with his wife, Carolle, who is also a master photographer, Dachowski has also earned numerous international accolades.

“I have always enjoyed the correlation between music and art,” Dachowski says. “Both mediums use shape, lines, texture, depth, movement, phrasing, repetition and subtle dynamics to alter the impact of a piece. With this exhibition, I aimed to illustrate the music that flows through my head when creating imagery. I am drawn to lines and movement. I love it when the geography of the landscape moves me through a scene.”
