Amy Krzanik reports from Lakeville. The traveling photography exhibit, On Time and Place: Celebrating Scenic Hudson's First 50 Years, is currently at its final stop at the Hotchkiss School's Tremaine Gallery, after visiting six public spaces in the Hudson Valley last year, including Grand Central Terminal. The installation, which runs through March 6, celebrates Scenic Hudson, the movement credited with saving Storm King Mountain and launching the modern grass-roots environmental movement. The 34 works by 12 photographers pay tribute to the Hudson Valley area, its scars and its beauty. From birds in flight and panoramic views of the land, to dramatic, color-drenched close-ups of rotting vegetation and abandoned factories, the work is at once varied and cohesive.
