Netti in Black and White
Sunday, March 12th, 2023
I photographed the lovely Netti Compton yesterday. I couldn’t resist immediately processing a couple of shots into black and white for my portrait project.

While we were out at the beach I did a portrait of Zura for my black and white portrait project.
More Tone
Friday, January 20th, 2023
I’m playing around with my black and white project and processed a few files with more toning. What do you think? The model is the always lovely Eden. I shot these last two with my 50-year-old, single-element soft focus lens.
More Black and White

I’m continuing to experiment with this new black and white process. Just going through old photos and finding ones that work for what I’m after in this new project. Soon I’ll be doing new shooting specifically to produce the look I’m after. But meanwhile these older photos are working for me. I’m looking forward to […]
A New Beginning
Monday, January 9th, 2023

If you’ve been around this blog much in the past few years you are well aware that I’m a great admirer of Anne Brigman, a member of the Photo Secession and a pioneering photographer of the nude in nature. After seeing a retrospective of her work at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno, I […]
Fruit and Flowers

More toned black and white photos from Proparazzi with Carrie, Tigger and Peggy. We had some fun with an old truck and some sunflowers. And then we went inside for more photos in the lovely house that’s also part of the photo location here. Still more to come from this great shoot with great models at a […]
