A fleeting break in the clouds casts strange morning light across the slopes of South Iceland. Two minutes later, it was gone.

A captivating portrait showcasing the model's intense gaze and striking features, captured in dramatic black and white.
A combination of rain clouds and intermintent sun made for dramatic skies over the sandstone cliff formations in the Sedona region. A painters dream lasting only moments as the light would then disappear as it played hide and seek. Photographers had to be patient and awake to the moment which is just how I like it to be. The one formation does resemble a penis well some of them anyway. And other high towers are given fancy and funny names as well. Its a land of wonder, awe, wow as well as a dream come true for hikers, nature lovers, and artists of every kind.

As I was posting this and remembering my sessions and interactions with these ladies, it occurred to me that since I began shooting in this genre I have met so many cool people! Allow me to gush a bit over these two: As both photographers and models, Keira and Jacs are two extremely talented people, who do some amazing stuff, and they are very easy to work with.
OK, Love Fest is over! lol
Keira Grant and Jacs Fishburne.

Time corrodes everything: walls, metal, even memories. During my one evening in Zakopane, my sight met this weathered building with its paint peeling into orange and grey, and a river lined with a railing covered in rusted locks. Little pieces of history still clinging on, most of their stories probably over long before the metal began to give in. Yet together, these places of corrosive time form their own dramatic story, one of bruised colors, paleness, and the kind of moodiness that lingers long after you’ve walked away. ️

I thought the morning was over but I was driving up a lane, i saw this beautifully shaped and then light came through the mist for just long enough for this photo. Getting lucky only comes about when you get out!

Dramatic light and sky in this view over Holwick with Cronkley Fell and Scar in the distance also lit by strong sunshine.
On a beautiful morning I shot this image. It's a view on the german city Emmerich, this is minutes after the first rays of the sun hit the land. This was also the first day I had to scratch the ice of my windshield.

A lone silhouette climbs the steps beneath a dark archway on the way up to Prague Castle. The bright courtyard beyond contrasts sharply with the shadowed passage, creating a dramatic black and white moment that captures the quiet, timeless atmosphere of Prague’s historic streets.

Some extraordinary and rapidly changing lighting conditions as very brief periods during which the sun almost breaks through the cloud cover create a dramatic view up the dale. Taken from Stable Edge above Newbiggin, with less zoom and a little further right than the previous image, this includes most of the Ettersgill farms centre and right of the picture.

the world is full of complicated answers.
long explanations, soft evasions.
but sometimes, there is only a simple, direct question.
it hangs in the air, heavy and warm in the late sun.
it is not an accusation.
it is an examination.
and in the silence that follows,
in the steady, unflinching gaze,
the real truth is found.
In normal light, this iris looks dark purple...almost black. I bought the bulb in Texas a couple of years ago, and it's called "Hello Darkness" after the Paul Simon song.
This was lit with a strobe equipped with a snoot underneath the flower, and a strobe in a softbox on either side of the flower. I just adjusted the flash output until I got the result I wanted. It looks entirely different lit like this which is why I used Halloween in the name.
Other plants and flowers that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my strobe lit plant set. In the description, I list resources that I've used to learn how to do this. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/...
