Two photographers exhibit at Manzanares Street Coffee Shop
Socorro, New Mexico – Manzanares Street Coffeehouse is featuring two photographers in their exhibit through the middle of March. Each photographer has her own unique artistic style and techniques but neither artist creates what one might describe as "typical" snapshots. These are definitely not your average 'shutterbugs. Not by a long shot...
