Jeff Schapira is currently showing 50 or more photos at The House of Art gallery in Contoocook.

“It’s like looking into his mind when you see these photos. There are quirky things like three chairs in a row someplace in Cairo, or three Laotian girls smiling their heads off, or his “Up close and Personal” shot of Jerry Garcia,” said Ruth Chevion, gallery owner. “You see what he felt when he shot it. You see into his mind.”

Schapira will give a gallery talk Sunday at 1 p.m. on how a photographer goes from a vision to a photo.

“People take thousands of pictures on their phones,” he said in a statement. “I can show them how to do it better, how to get the image that they are seeing.”

The House of Art is located in the Bates Building, 846 Main St., Contoocook. For more information, email villageartgallery846@gmail.com.
