A Photographer’s Showcase<br />

by Brenda Ahearn<br />

European<br />

Brenda’s<br />

Vacation<br />

Brenda Ahearn did the unthinkable in January 2004. She left her job at the Salina<br />

Journal in Salina, KS, to spend nearly six months backpacking and photographing<br />

parts <strong>of</strong> Europe. Her journey began in Greece, and eventually took her to Italy,<br />

Spain, Portugal, France, England and Ireland. A<br />

pair <strong>of</strong> tennis shoes and twenty thousand<br />

images later Brenda had produced a<br />

tremenous collection <strong>of</strong> work that portrayed<br />

a fly-on-the-wall look at the nuances <strong>of</strong><br />

Europe. Brenda, the former university<br />

photographer at Northern Arizona Universiy,<br />

made it back from her jaunt just in time to<br />

make the Houston Symposium in June.<br />
