  • Time, neglect, and exposure to the elements can have amazing effects on the appearance of so many things. Despite the usual focus on new shiny objects, these are often just not as visually compelling as those that have stood the test of time and present their own unique appeal.

    Walk around to capture the amazing textures and colors in old rusted cars, peeling paint on a rundown building, walls, doors and windows of an abandoned, dilapidated factory, contrasting plaster and lathing on a corroded wall and the myriad of possible captures in a junkyard.  

    Neighborhoods, disparagingly called "run down", are treasure troves of "decayed" tumble down houses, "corroded" discarded toys, "rusted" cars, trash cans and so on. 

     

    Decay, Corrosion, Rust.... can take many forms; black and white, color, abstract - all photographic media are welcome.

  • KODAK, ILFORD, FUJI were the names that stood out in the early years of photography when shooting, developing and then printing were the steps to getting a great Black and White image.  Memories of darkrooms, trays, chemicals as the necessary tools bring smiles to many. 

    The world of photography has changed dramatically with regard to how these images are created but the special nature of a monochrome print, whether it be black and white, sepia or even shades of a single color are still where emotion, texture and beauty are expressed in gradations from light to dark. No matter if your original image was shot with tri x film, a digital SLR, or your phone, if the end product is a terrific monochrome image, it fits the call.
