I was first intrigued by photography from my grandpa who always had his film camera out taking pictures throughout my childhood. From my initial curiosity, I took a class in photography during high school where I learned all of the basics.

When I attended Luther College I took another photography class and also had my first digital camera which helped me take a lot of memorable photographs. During that same time I completed the New York Institute of Photography. After college I moved out to Colorado and had a wonderful experience taking pictures of the gorgeous scenery through all of the seasons.

​I have recently moved back to Iowa and I enjoy taking landscape photographs wherever I travel. I find it fascinating that each photograph that is taken is one moment in time that can never be exactly reproduced again.

Judith Eastburn

My black and white photographs are darkroom printed silver gelatin prints. The subjects are old grain elevators of the midwest, recorded in their landscape settings.

Judith Eastburn was born in 1944, and grew up in Burlington, Iowa. Her earliest experience with photography involved pictures taken with a box camera and printed at the drugstore. She earned a BA degree in Zoology at the University of Iowa in 1966, followed by a Master’s degree in Microbiology. In addition to science courses, she began taking photography classes in the Art Department, and embarked on a lifelong fascination with seeing through her camera (now a 35 mm) and printing in the darkroom.

Eastburn spent the 1970s teaching Microbiology at the University of Alabama and working in labs in Alabama and Iowa City as a research assistant. These positions included the study of fruit fly populations, cockroach nerve growth, corn photosynthesis and cholera toxin. During this decade, she enrolled as a part-time student in the University of Iowa Art Department, eventually earning an MA, then a Master of Fine Arts in photography. She also holds a teaching certificate for K-12 Art from the University of Iowa. Since that time, she has taught photography courses at the university level at SMSU Springfield, Richmond-upon-Thames College in England, and Grandview University, Des Moines. Other teaching experiences range from photo classes for children 8-12 through high school courses in art, most recently at Dowling Catholic High School and Grandview University. She is now retired and enjoying the time to travel and work in the darkroom.

​She currently uses a medium format camera and works exclusively with black and white film, developing and printing in her darkroom. Judith Eastburn has exhibited work since 1980, appearing in 31 juried shows and in 16 invitational exhibitions. She has presented 12 one-person shows.

My work is original photography of predominantly Iowa birds, animals and landscapes as printed on metal, matted photos and photo notecards. I've been interested in photography and nature for many years, beginning with film and moving to digital photography. I spend much of my free time with camera in hand at Iowa's state and county parks. Looking through the lens and composing an interesting photo forces me to be more aware of my surroundings, enhancing the outdoor experience. The image is a bonus which allows me to share a special moment with others.

​My photographs have appeared in several exhibits including Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge, Mary Greeley Medical Center, Ankeny Art Center, Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge (Sanibel, Florida), State Library (Des Moines), and Octagon Center for the Arts.

I have been photographing for 15 years incorporating works of landscape and wildlife into my body of work. Growing up in Norwalk I developed a reverence for nature and observed lighting and animal behavior over many years giving me the insight for making striking captures. My work has been displayed at numerous show the Des Moines area and Ames.

Growing up in Czech Republic, I hadn't seen many fireflies (lightning bugs) before. It was very magical when I saw thousands of them in Iowa for the first time. Fireflies are for me the light in the dark; they show me the path to joy, hope, healing and connection with nature. Through my photography I wish to share their magical beauty with others.
