2015 Monochrome Retrospecitve - the Dark SIde

I have gravitated to the the idea of High Contrast Monochrome and have found it to feel very natural to me. I'm curious about that too .... there was a time when black and white photography didn't interest me at all. Times, they are a changin'

Thank you rps. I agree with you ..... these look much more dramatic presented as they were here.Wonderful stuff! They would not be half as good in colour!

Makes me nostalgic for the smell of hypo and acetic acid and the wonderful sensation that has been lost to the computer: watching a BW image magically emerge in a tray of Dektol.

Thanks TIA. These were shot in sunlight then converted to B&W. I masked the buildings to their own layer, then overlayed them on a pure black background.How did you light the buildings?

Beautiful effect on the plants and homes. "Lamentations" image reminds me of the line in a hymn " I'll cling to the old rugged cross".

Bob, this is an impressive collection. Phosphorescence is what comes to my mind. As I child I would swirl a stick in dark water and watch the water light up. Your subjects also seem to emit their own light!
