Nearly 500 photographs taken by Gwinnett County Public Schools middle and high school students will be on display at the Gwinnett Environmental Heritage Center through the end of February.

The exhibit, called Shutter Sense, is a teacher- and student-initiated, countywide photography event showcasing talent from about 20 schools. The 500 photographs are grouped into 15 different categories of photography approaches. Awards are given for first, second and third place in each category.
