Cordner continues to show his adventure and fine-art images at various venues throughout Southern California. “I see the beauty in everything and I try to capture the moment as I see it - pure, unaltered and uncomplicated.” Cordner is known for his technical expertise and master print making.

Cathleen Calkins has been making pictures for 15 years as well. Her work has appeared on music-related compact discs and in regional and national print magazines and newspapers. In 2005, Calkins was awarded an honorable mention by Women in Photography International for her adventure photo of “Street Scene - Tinque, Peru.” Calkins continues to produce fine art, adventure and commercial images - all with a view of telling a story. “I am compelled to know the who, what and why of the subjects I photograph, and I think this comes through.” Calkins, also a freelance writer, is hard at work writing about and photographing the local San Bernardino Mountains for a forthcoming book.
