Local Milton Photographer Captures AWARD with BLENKO

Laura Moul is well known in the Milton area as a school teacher and a photographer. Her photos of Blenko glass and glassworks are sold at BLENKO - they can be used as post cards or as the perfect addition to your GLASS GIFT - the photo of the glass worker creating the glass. Its an awesome combination. The cards are very inexpensive.
We often buy photo cards of the Blenko gardens so Friends can see the beautiful flowering beds. Lauras' photos of people are even better - she is somehow able to capture their sole in the photos. You'll just have to search for her photos while you're at Blenko. Laura's photos are works of art. Its nice to have a local person take such interest in photographing Blenko and the folks at Blenko.
She recently send the above photo and this note.
"Just thought I'd share the attached photo. At the 7th Annual National Miniature Exhibition at The Renaissance Gallery in Huntington, I won Honorable Mention with this photo. Only 15 artwork received awards out of 125. The juror was John Allen Thompson, world renowned miniature artist from Washington, D. C."

  2. Lovely photos
    Mr. Ram is right you are the Blenko know it all.
    I very much enjoy reading this
    and learning about Blenko.
    We went to see Blenko on Friday
    and I will go again for Christmas
    gifts.
    Thank you
    It was near me all allong but I didn't know. We moved here 7 years ago and I never hear of Blenko Glass - until 3 months ago.
    I may soon be called an addict.
    Can you tell me who is safe to buy from on Ebay?

  5. Thanks to those who left comments. My photos of the discarded glass piles (cull)have been getting recognized. In the Blenko Visitor Center check out the photo notecards and photoglass paperweights that I made with Blenko artisans blowing glass or even with my new "Bits of Glass" images. I used my Pentax istDL digital camera and a variety of lenses to capture the new images. I'm selling them as framed or matted art prints. No filters or manipulation was done in Photoshop, so these were pure images "capturing moments in time" at Blenko Glass Factory in Milton. Unfortunately, the beautiful colors (as seen in the photo above) cannot be seen again as a lot of the cull has been hauled away. I'm printing my "Bits of Glass" art prints on metallic paper which captures the beauty of Blenko glass in a special way. I'll be glad to post more if anyone would like to see.
