A View of the Grand Canyon, B&W

There is something rather moody here that really appealed to me, more so than the color version.

More Daffodils

I felt like a tourist when I headed out to the botanical garden a few weeks ago. I had my Olympus XA4, my Kodak Retina IIIc for its maiden voyage, and the Perkeo II loaded with Fuji Neopan 400. I am so impressed with this film – the blacks are black, and the whites are white. I didn’t have an orange or red filter with me, so some pictures were not what I would have liked to see; still, the detail and beauty of the film is seen here (and the Perkeo is no slouch, either). Sadly, Neopan in this form is no longer made – the C-41 form – although Acros is available.

Morning

A little bit of sunshine . . .

1 / 365: Corner Between the Windows

Nothing like cleaning house and thinking about corners. I looked up here and realized I had never noticed the crack in the plaster, nor the little indentation toward the shelving above. I expect I will find all sorts of weird things as I look at corners.

Shameless Advertising

While it is still too chilly and windy to do anything much, and rain is on the way, I’ve been browsing through past photos and converting them to b&w. Meanwhile, the studio is looking good!
