In my youth (at the times of film photography), I shot mostly in black and white, for both aesthetical and practical reasons. I loved that fact that I could develop and print my photos (being self-sufficient is a big deal!), and when given the choice, I tend to go monochromatic.

Now I’m back experimenting with black and white photography, both with the Nikon and the iPhone. I’m also turning my Instagram feed into a black and white gallery, to give it a more uniform look.

This is a little selection from a photo trip around Borough.

I have avoided the obvious views, I even avoided the market all together! But I’m planning to dedicate a photo-shoot just to that.

Stay tuned for more.

It’s freezing cold! Light snow has been floating in the air for a couple of days, swept around by the cold wind. Not the season to be going around in search of interesting images.

So all I can do — apart from working on some art, designing websites, and studying — is take photos of interiors.

This is from a series in black and white, that I have been working on for a while.

In the meantime I wait for the weather to warm up, even just a little bit, so I can go back exploring and re-discovering this beautiful city.

This week I have been experimenting with black and white photography, both with the Nikon and with the IPhone.

I’m still editing the Nikon ones, working into automating actions in photoshop.

I have also downloaded the trial version of Silver Efex Pro to see if it’s worth spending the money on it.

All the photos in this post were taken with my IPhone (still using the 3GS), edited with Snapseed (from the same people that created Silver Efex Pro) and Fuzel.

The weekend saw me a bit lost on what to do.

So, I just grabbed a new sketchbook and started doodling…creatures, again.

Shadows of pictures to come

I’m experimenting with ideas, using black and white photography, and thinking about huge canvasses.
