Art by Don Edwards
(WARETOWN, NJ) -- The Waretown Branch of the Ocean County Library will host Nature in Ocean County, an exhibit by award-winning local photographer Don Edwards, from May 1 until June 30, 2026 in the branch's meeting room. Edwards's work includes nature, wildlife, landscapes, cityscapes, and astrophotography.
“The series…I have selected for this exhibit depict scenes using lighting, color, textures and perspectives showing the unique beauty of our world,” especially southern Ocean County and Waretown, Don said, adding that he favors early morning or late day light for their dramatic accents.
“Cityscapes, bridges…come to life in the evening as the lights help define their impressive structures and presence,” he said. “You will have the opportunity to view and appreciate the wonders of astro photography, the beauty of sunrises and sunsets, amazing wildlife, [and] landscapes that make our area so unique.”
