This is the black and white version of the latest view of the Calla lily plant that I'm currently exploiting. I converted the image to black and white using Nik Software's Silver Efex Pro 2 software. Like most images, it looks better when viewed large, and you can see it in that enlightened manner by clicking on the image or pressing "L" on your keyboard. Down below in the comments you can see the color version of this image. Please click on it if you'd like to see it larger.
I lit this with one YN560-III in an 8.6 inch Lastolite softbox above and to the right of the flower. Fill light came from a small hand mirror at camera left. The flash, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N. While the Lastolite soft box is relatively small for a softbox, because it's much larger than the subject and also within 4 inches of it, the light on the flower is very soft.
Other Calla Lily pictures are in my Calla Lilly set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157626082181550/...
Other black and white images that I've attempted can be seen in my Black And White Album.

Even when life gets rough, busy, and frustrating, you can always turn to music to calm you down, pump you up, make you cry, and make you dance like a crazy person at 2am. Completely shut the world out every once in a while and trust me, you'll see a change within yourself.
Chiaroscuro.
Sometimes the path you want to take looks beautiful, but you have to go through something to reach it.
Half-hidden in shadow, the child’s eye pierces through the darkness with a gaze that is both haunting and innocent. This fine art black and white portrait captures the fragile balance between vulnerability and mystery, where light reveals only what it chooses to and silence holds the rest. A study in contrasts — light and dark, fear and wonder — it invites the viewer to pause, look deeper, and discover their own reflection in the intensity of that single eye.
This black and white portrait, filled with dramatic tones and shadow play, belongs to the world of fine art portraiture where emotion and storytelling merge. The cinematic atmosphere makes this image not only a portrait, but also a moment of mystery preserved in monochrome.

Seen in Prescott, Arizona. What appears to be digital noise in this image is rain.

I swear, she was NOT scowling at me...she was glaring at her 2 year old brother who had managed to climb to the top of a ladder sitting in the garage. haha!
A monochrome street portrait capturing a moment of direct connection between photographer and subject. The interplay of natural light and shadow shapes the face while the embroidered shirt and textured beard add richness to the composition. The unwavering gaze transforms an ordinary pause into a powerful study of character, presence and dignity within the urban environment.
We've come to Willcox, Arizona to see the sandhill cranes, do sightseeing and hang out with friends. This was taken about 45 minutes before sundown when the clouds behind the trees went almost black, but the light on the watchers was warm and bright. I took this with my infrared camera because my color camera had a long lens and teleconverter on it, and I was too lazy to switch lenses. Also, it was dramatic light that I thought might look good in infrared.
My infrared set has more IR images and an explanation of how they are done. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157600507865146/
Pink Hex: Caught in the Glow (B&W) - 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.
More images from the sessions with Vanessa from a few weeks ago. We've scheduled another day of spontaneous shooting for next week.
The sun manages to break through a dust clouds to create an interesting light effect in a Sahara dune field in Morocco.

This was in my opinion the best sunset of the summer in South Florida. Had a few images left over
so I thought I'd add them here...before the Winter season. Thanks for looking ~ Florida Everglades
Sometimes, the sky writes poetry and trees stand still just to listen. Captured at that magical moment when the sun whispers through the clouds, this frame is less about the landscape, and more about what it makes you feel.
Morning rays strike the Balmoral Hotal and surrounding buildings in Edinburgh, painting them in an orange glow.
The Balmoral is a luxury five-star hotel and landmark in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is located in the heart of the city at the east end of Princes Street, the main shopping street beneath the Edinburgh Castle rock, and the southern edge of the New Town.
One of the most awesome things about traveling around the Czech Republic, Vienna, and Munich, was the hot wine and warm punches served all over. These are the perfect drinks for when you are spending your days exploring these wonderful places in colder weather. You can get these from kiosks all over the place and carry your punch or wine while walking around and exploring. Definitely a highlight. :)
The cliffs beneath the Old Man of Storr rise from the Trotternish Ridge in winter light. Columnar basalt, formed by ancient volcanic force, stands unmoved against shifting weather and passing seasons. Snow traces the vertical lines of the rock face, defining its scale and weight. It does not react. It does not yield. It simply remains. Isle of Skye, Scotland.
A late summer evening captured in Franconia: the sun breaking through the clouds, forming a radiant star above the harvested fields.
The light, the clouds, and the gentle lens flare come together to create a quiet yet dramatic moment of transition between day and night.
