Riverlink Park is a beautiful park on the south bank of the Mohawk River accessible by twin walkways from downtown Amsterdam. Photographer Stan Johnson has been documenting these concerts through his photography since the early 2000s.
Although this is Stanley’s first exhibit, he is no stranger to photography. He has been a professional photographer since 1973. A graduate of University of South Carolina School of Journalism, he has worked as a journalist, as well as a school photographer for Ramark Varden, Lauren, McGrath and Carlyn studios,
As a music photographer his work has appeared in Buzz, Nippertown.com and vintagerock.com.
