(Richmond, Ind.) Tom McFarlane’s “Images from a Digital Darkroom” will be on display at The Gallery at Indiana University East from August 27 to September 21.

McFarlane has always been involved in photography, but with the arrival of high resolution digital photography over the past few years, his interest has grown.

“The immediacy of digital imaging has changed everything. It gives me the ability to shoot, and see the results instantaneously,” McFarlane said. “And with Photoshop, I have the ability to refine the images in ways that were impossible using the conventional darkroom.”

After earning a BFA in printmaking from Miami University in Ohio, McFarlane opened a graphic design/photography studio in Chicago, close to his home town. Later he returned to southwest Ohio to teach photography and now owns a publishing company in Cincinnati, Hampton Publishing.
