Blum’s photography brought to life the historic edifices of Lehigh County, places etched in time and registered as national treasures. Utilizing a palette of historical photo printing techniques, from cyanotype to palladium, he captured the essence of structures like the Burnside Plantation and Americus Hotel. The show was not just a visual journey but an educational experience, culminating in a workshop and closing reception that engaged and enlightened the community.[/ut_header][/vc_column][vc_column
