Very strong sunshine in brief bursts creating dramatic lighting on Low End farm, Harwood, Upper Teesdale.

Our dogs have a tendency to own the bed/couches/chairs/laps/whatever they think is comfy enough for them... What can we do??
New series I want to start with African American women, light to dark. I just want to bring out the beauty in every woman. Coming soon..
It looks like I'm right in the river itself at Minnowburn near Shaw's Bridge in Belfast.
The sun has lit up the autumn colours in the background on a very frosty morning.
One unwelcome addition is a sock which is hanging over a branch near the top of the shot.
Best viewed large on black.
Maybe it's the front. I called it an S-curve because it was easy, but I'd rather not see it as the actual letter S, because that's cheesy. It's the shape of an S, but not the letter itself, OK?
Pink Hex: Caught in the Glow - Fog, gels, and controlled light wrap the frame in color, but the real pull is in the pause. A moment caught mid-thought, where atmosphere and emotion meet without needing to compete.
Lara Croft: Locked on Target - A cinematic Lara Croft cosplay portrait inspired by Tomb Raider. With dual pistols drawn and eyes locked forward, this studio setup captures the intensity and confidence of the iconic adventurer. Custom 3D-printed prop weapons and dramatic rim lighting add depth and tension, bringing the action-game energy into a controlled studio environment.
Lit with a Flashpoint XPlor 600 key, Godox AD200/V1-P fill, and a gobo backlight for that signature cinematic edge.

This was a night shot taken at Canyon Creek Ranch as part of a 12 hour workshop put on by the Arizona Professional Photographers Association. As part of the workshop, actors/ models were there in period costumes. The actor in the doorway of the church is Greg Wildman who was in character as Milo, a member of the Clanton Maclaury gang.
This was taken after the sun had set, and we used long exposures (I was at 3 seconds) while one of the instructors did light painting on the exterior of the church using an LED flashlight, and a dim light inside the church provided the backlighting. I love the dramatic look of this, and having the model light up a cigarette to create smoke was brilliant on the part of the instructor.
Other images that I took during the day long workshop at Canyon Creek Ranch are in my Canyon Creek Ranch Album.

In a moment between fear and fortitude, a hand becomes an anchor, a lifeline.
Lines of strain carve her face, yet within them lies a beauty far deeper than ease — the beauty of fighting for something greater than herself.
Here, in this brief eternity, love holds steady

Yanire in a dark studio portrait, her hair caught in motion against a deep black background for a bold, dramatic look. The off-shoulder black top, delicate pearl necklace and sculpted light create an elegant, fashion-inspired mood that highlights her feminine lines and confident presence.
Some wonderful sidelighting this last Sunday afternoon at Sharpitor. This is the view looking towards Leather tor during what amounted to 5 minutes max of fantastic light just before sunset.

A striking image of a snake coiled around a tree branch, captured in dramatic lighting. The intricate patterns on the snake's scales are highlighted, showcasing the beauty and complexity of this reptile. The contrast between the dark, textured bark and the smooth, patterned skin of the snake creates a visually captivating scene.
A voice carved from shadow.
Suspended between silence and cry,
this dark figure stands like a guardian of forgotten skies.
Not just a bird —
but a symbol of instinct, presence, and untamed truth.
In the stillness, even a whisper feels like thunder.

The walkway leading to the entrance to the Eden Project.
I used the Dramatic Light filter in onOne Perfect B&W for most of the image, but used Perfect Layers to mask out the woman’s head, and applied a bit of extra detail and desaturation to her hair in the Enhance module.

Nile Empress: Gilded Presence: A modern interpretation of ancient Egyptian elegance, layered gold, sculpted light, and a stance that feels both timeless and deliberate. Warm side lighting shapes the form while a cool backlight adds separation, giving the scene a subtle cinematic depth.
