It takes a personal sensitivity to see the moment, and get the photo. Sometimes it is simply being in the right place at the right time.

Lia E. Bristol’s photography has of late been realized as having captured moments in time, and thus the name of her photography business, Cherishing Moments in Time. In the past year between Nebraska City and Auburn four old barns have been lost due to strong winds or mankind choosing their removal. Things taken for granted as always being there are no more, except for her remaining photographs.

In 1980 Bristol graduated from college with a BA and an accompanying Concentration in Design She was the only undergraduate to place with an award in the college juried art show.

“My appreciation for form, light, balance and design was molded into a solid foundation which has found creative expression throughout my years of floral design, photography, and sewing. My hope is that your heart will cherish your moments in time, and experience the same through my photography as well.”

The Cherishing Moments in Time exhibit is in the Kimmel Gallery at Morton-James Public Library, 923 1st Corso, Nebraska City, 68410. The exhibit is available during regular Library hours: 9-6 Monday -Thursday; 9-5 Friday and 9-1 Saturdays. The exhibit will run to May 26 due to the holiday weekend.
