As you might know, I have not been able to get out on photo shoots lately and consequently have been digging into my archive for photos of windows.

Juxtaposition
Last Saturday I had finished my Monday Window post for this week and later that evening I saw the Lens-Artists challenge post “Lens-Artists #386: The Power of Juxtaposition” by Patti Moed.

The Decisive Crop
Looking closely at People Art festivals are one of my favorite occasions for spontaneous portraiture. People there want to be photographed, be they performers or visitors. I take my big rig, and often hear, “take our picture!” I always oblige, although those are not always the images I cherish. I try for that decisive moment…… Continue reading The Decisive Crop

Minimalism
Lens-Artists Challenge #381 is by Ritva Sillanmäki. She says: At Lens-Artists, we’ve explored minimalism and black-and-white photography separately, each offering its unique perspective and emotional depth, but when these two styles are combined, they create a powerful and engaging atmosphere that resonates deeply with us on multiple levels. The stark contrasts and the interplay of…… Continue reading Minimalism
