Residents in Senoia will have a unique opportunity this weekend to see the unveiling of an addition to an ongoing photography exhibit.

The addition to "Portrait of Senoia" opens Sunday at the Senoia Historical Society at the intersection of Couch and Pylant streets.

The exhibit features works from nationally known photographer Gary Gruby, who just happens to call the town home.

Residents will get a chance to see some of the faces that Gruby has photographed during his more than 10 years in the town.

"Some of them have lived here all their lives and some may have been here just for a day," Gruby said.

The new photos will be in a different room at the Historical Societyreflect his different development techniques.

All the pictures on exhibit are archived, and he feels the historical society is a much better place for his prints than in many of his photo notebooks.

"I just want to try and give a little bit back to a community that has given so much to me," he said.

The exhibit runs from 1-4 p.m. and a reception follows afterward at the Historical Society house.
