I‘ve got two big photographic learning projects this year: learning to make beautiful black and white photos, and conquering the use of flash. I didn’t need any flash with this one, what with that big flash bulb in the sky, but I am happy with the tones and shapes in this one.
I sort of wish his head weren’t directly in front of the play structure, but I think the rim lighting around his head gives it just enough separation to make it work. What do you think?
I like 🙂 I am a big lover of b&w images myself.. and take a lot! I go through times when I love my flash and the results I get with it, and then I go the entire opposite way and I’m tentative to use it again and try to suck any natural light I can get rather than use it. it is a strange relationship we have.. my flash & me!
