That top one is an oldie … shot back in the middle of summer. Just saw it in a new way when I was looking at it yesterday. Saw it in black and white and cropped a little tighter than the original framing. I can’t wait for spring and summer again so I can go on my park walks! For now, I am just stuck in the studio, but that is okay too. I can think of much worse fates! BTW, how is the flu? Getting better, I hope.
I’m glad you revisited it, Jennifer. It’s beautiful! You have to be patient, Spring is still 2 months away. I am (I believe) finally over the ‘flu! Three cheers! I am still incredibly tired and have little stamina, but that is to be expected after being virtually bedridden for two weeks.
Hip hip Hooray! Hopefully you’ll bounce back from it shortly. What a relief!
Thank you! I enjoy B&W a great deal now. It just has a different way of hitting the senses. I enjoy the bodyscape approach to nudes more so than the straightforward or statuary approaches, maybe because it is somewhat similar to macro in its perspective. It shares a similar type of abstraction, if that makes sense!
That definitely makes sense. I find myself sometimes only looking at details, and other times focusing on large shots. The intricacy of a flower in macro (especially in these parts) really blows my mind. I can’t see the detail with my naked eye. It’s a refreshing way to view the world. : )
Agree! Macro is a favorite of mine, and you do such lovely work with it!
Haha! Thanks! You know, I really do start off with collecting just random images from various folders, but sometimes they begin to connect or I start to see a connection. That is what happened this time. There were several other images that didn’t connect at all, and I left them out. Once a synthesis occurs, I just can’t ignore it. It has a life of its own!
Jennifer, you understanding of light quality is precise and subtle at the same time, like holding a new born. Reminds me Edward Weston in some way. Congratulations!
Very nice collection… I wouldn’t consider that nude photography, its just artistic and there is nothing “sensitive” showing Since its a back shot… I’m assuming its you??? :p

I love your tones. These are great B&W shots.
Hey, Richard! Appreciate it!
Just wonderful
Thanks!
Fabulous nude photograph! I think back dimples are adorable (and wish I had them). I agree you do great things with black and white photography.
Thank you!

Hey, David, thanks!
