From the Daily Times Leader

An Alabama photographer whose work has been featured in national and international publications will present a Dec. 9 lecture at First Presbyterian Church USA. Chip Cooper of Tuscaloosa will continue a series that honors longtime West Point residents Clark and Diane Young and their commitment to the environment. The 2 p.m. presentation, which is free to the public, is titled “Nature’s Light.”

“We established the Clark and Diane Young Environmental Lecture to honor the lifelong stewardship of two of our devoted members,” said Rev. Rita E. Cochrane. “We’re especially delighted that this lecture also will capture their love of nature’s beauty.” Cooper, head of photography at the University of Alabama, has published four books of photographs and has had work exhibited around the South and in Costa Rica, France and Washington D.C.
