Trunks of dead conifers near Torridon village, Scotland. The trees were destroyed in a wild fire in 2011.
Back again! My slow return got even slower but hopefully returning back to some sort of normality!
Anyway a scene from Barnes's Grove, Buckinghamshire that worked for me in B&W and just adore the charcoal shades that came out of the conversion.
One night, I attempted to sketch my mother. I worked on the drawing for a while, focusing mainly on her eyes. For some reason, I could not capture that sense of watchful isolation that shielded her vision. Hence, I practiced on Ms. Angel Aquino's portrait instead. I knew then that if I get this portrait "right", I would be able to draw my mother's portrait...and I did.
This is actually the "Genesis" of most of the pieces on my SHADOWS series- a compressed charcoal study on a 90gsm smooth paper.

During winter season, I try to find a hint of color in the monochrome landscape. But here, I was pleased by the look of this ICM movement in black and white!
The charcoal kilns complex in Wildrose Canyon is among the more remarkable historical-architectural features of Death Valley National Park. Built in 1877, these beehive-shaped kilns were used to create charcoal for local mining operations. IN 1875, LEAD ORE WAS discovered in California’s Argus Range. Shortly after its discovery, George Hearst purchased the land and formed the Modoc Consolidated Mining Company to mine the ore for silver from the area.
After the company depleted most of the area’s limited supply of wood, Hearst ordered the construction of ten kilns to make charcoal from pine logs. The kilns were completed in 1877 and built 25 miles from the mine in a more wooded area. The 25-foot high limestone kilns, constructed from local outcroppings and mortared with lime, gravel, and sand, employed around 40 men in the production and transportation of charcoal bushels to the area near the mine. After only two years of operation, the mines were shutdown and the kilns abandoned due to worsening ore quality.

going back to the most basic photographic equipment can remind you of the poetry, the essence, of the art
who is to say whether this picture is good or bad, real or unreal - but to me it evokes dreams, and they spring from the core of us
A gentle capture portraying what was in my mind at the time. Light, soft, merciful and tender. Almost charcoal like in soft tones as if a pencil drawing.
Starting to love & get confident with this dark style and processing I think. The trees of course are glorious and majestic and I always try and do them justice to then best of my current knowledge & abilities.
For Macro Mondays - Carbon.

Visit to a 15th-century medieval castle where paintings and charcoal sketches by a great Lombard parish decorator (Vittorio Trainini) were exhibited.
Charcoal kilns, such as these at Bristol Wells NV, can be found throughout the remote regions of Nevada. Used to make charcoal for smelting ore, they have outlived their use but still remain.
This is a composite of two shots, one for the foreground and one of the night sky. I added the lighting of the Kilns in PS as well.
