I used this shot to experiment with some texture layering and have decided to keep a small amount here for the final version. I do like the effect and think it works well with this subject matter although not sure how it will ultimately look printed.

Edgewater Park has been my favorite location shoot this year and plan to return this winter to try and get these jetties with a fresh coat of snow on them.

And finally... I have decided to create a second photostream where I will be posting experimental and other stuff not related to my fine-art b&w work. View it here.

A somewhat odd composition, but I think it works.

I seem to keep going back and forth between dark, ominous images and higher key minimalistic shots. My attraction lies in the subtleties that can be achieved in the high, mid and dark tonal areas. I usually find myself exploring the mid to darker tones but there is just something that I love in the upper zones, especially when translated to print.

No Photoshop filter applied, it was snowing rather hard during this exposure, the snowflakes are giving it that 'filtered' look.

I shot this back in March and had been struggling with processing these shots so never did anything with them. My post-processing approach has evolved a bit over the last few months and think I finally got something that I like.
