From a shoot in West Palm Beach FL, on likely the main drag Clematis Street. Don't usually get so "street", but it's sometimes rewarding to hunt juxtapositions like these.

Black and white street reflection photograph blending layers of reality and advertising — a torn poster of a woman’s face with the words “BREAK THE SILENCE” overlaps with reflections of cars, buildings, and a passing pedestrian. The scene includes the storefront “UBREAKIFIX,” adding irony to the fractured composition. Shot by @eddie@ilovephotography.com on a Nikon D3, 35mm lens, at f9.

Don't mind me... just seeing faces again. 😑

Hi Macka. That it caused you to linger for a moment on the image is more than I can ask. Thank you. 🙏

Kind of a random abstract I noticed through my bedroom screened window this morning.

Softly blurred black-and-white photograph of light filtering through leafy branches against a wooden fence, creating an abstract interplay of highlights and shadow patterns. Nikon Zf, 135mm f1.8 at 1.8, shot through a screened window.

I know these are everywhere, but I really wanted to shoot something while I was home today.

Nikon Zf, 135mm f1.8 wide open, overcast evening light.

A small cluster of Blue Plumbago flowers glows softly against a dark green background of leaves. The pale bluish petals form a gentle pinwheel pattern, standing out as the only bright element in the moody, low-light composition. The image conveys a calm, introspective feeling, with the delicate blooms emerging quietly from the shadows.

Last evening's light around my back porch, during a long peaceful drizzle, was so soft and expressive.

Here's a take of a wrought iron chair just outside my sliding doors. To stay dry I just shot thru the dark screening.

Black-and-white photograph of a wrought-iron garden chair with rose motifs on its backrest, sitting empty beneath glossy, rain-dappled leaves. The scene is viewed through a screened door, softening the details and adding a gentle haze. Shot on a Nikon Zf with a 135 mm f/1.8 lens wide open, during an overcast drizzle on the photographer’s back porch, evoking quiet solitude and calm.

An evening regatta shot I made when I first got hold of the Nikon 200-400mm f4G. The lens length exaggerated the size of the sun relative to the foreground scene.

A sailboat glides across calm water at sunset, silhouetted against a fiery orange sky. The sun, enormous and perfectly round, hovers just above a dark ridgeline of trees and hills. Layers of distant mountains fade into the hazy horizon, while the glowing sun casts a warm reflection across the tranquil lake.

From my trip to Hawaii to attend a wedding.

Nikon D3, 60mm Micro at f4

#photography #blackandwhite #palms #Hawaii #palmtrees #scenic #mountains #tropical #vacation
Black and white photograph of tall palm trees in Hawaii, standing in front of mist-shrouded mountains under an overcast sky. The image is framed by two mottled tree trunks on either side, with dense palms below adding depth and texture. The mood feels calm and atmospheric; a tropical landscape in soft light before a rainfall.

When my niece started showing an interest in photography, I was thrilled to give to her the first camera I owned and used to learn the craft, a Nikon FE.
This is from a recent hike into the mountains of Vermont, where we both photographed the same scenes. So fun 😃
#scenicphotography #blackandwhite
Black and white landscape photograph of distant mountain ridges beneath a vast, turbulent sky. Layers of dark hills stretch across the bottom of the frame, their shapes fading into mist and shadow. Above them, dense clouds billow and swirl, forming intricate textures of light and gray. The scene feels calm yet foreboding, suggesting an approaching storm or a moment of stillness before one.

From my sandpiper panning series; neglected to this post one yet. Taken early in the project, it reflects my original vision for what the resulting images would look like. It was fun to branch out from there.

#photography #blackandwhite #birds #birding #nature #sandpiper #ICM #beach #ocean #waves
A sandpiper (likely a Sanderling) dashes across wet sand near the surf, its legs blurred from motion. The photograph was made by panning the camera to follow the bird, resulting in an ICM (intentional camera movement) style that softens the background into sweeping streaks of reflected light and shadow. The image is in black and white, emphasizing the bird’s form and its fleeting movement along the shoreline.

Yes, I checked it out Linda. The old guy knows how to spend the morning... with good coffee and a view. 😜 ☕

Hi Linda! I'm not sure why posts and/or images are disappearing on you, but it could be just on your side of things. I think your posts are showing as you intend them to, for us at least. Hope it's an easy fix. 🛠️ 😉
