3:30pm -4:15pm- Tony Sweet - The invisible worlds of photography
There is a whole other world out there that we live in, but cannot see, and can only be seen when captured using an altered camera, extreme density filters, and software voodoo. Photographing things we cannot see is thrilling. Tony will illustrate and delve into, as much as possible in 45 minutes, the worlds of very long exposure photography, movement, traditional and color infrared photography.

About the castle:
After the Spanish-American War, arms merchant Francis Bannerman bought 90 percent of the U.S. Army's decommissioned weapons. Bannerman then constructed an arsenal on an island in the Hudson River. Built in the style of a Scottish castle, the arsenal featured a gateway once outfitted with a drawbridge. Long neglected and devastated by fire in 1969, the castle is now the focus of local preservation efforts.
