e of the new ricoh camera got me jonesing for bw again so i decided to devote a month to shooting mostly monochrome it was just my luck that the new ricoh happened just before may just to be clear when i say i shoot bw i mean exactly that i never well almost never shoot in color then shift to bw in post processing when i shoot bw i set my camera to bw everything i see in the viewfinder or on the display with the ricoh is in bw i do that to remove the distraction of color i want to see the world in shades of tone rather than hues of color when you strip away color then texture contrast light shadow and specularity become more critical there s a better than even chance you re not familiar with the term specularity it refers to they way light reflects off various surfaces when light hits a flat surface like the side of the buildings in the first photo or the surface of the pond in the second it reflects differently than when it reflects off the rough bristly side of a longhorn steer that specularity becomes significantly more important in bw specularity makes you decide whether you want hard sharp contrasty images or soft diffuse ones i say you have to decide but in truth the subject matter is often the deciding factor if i m shooting in the city i tend to go more contrasty i m pretty sure that s actually a word than when i m shooting in the countryside removing color from a photograph removes any number of visual distractions oddly enough that makes it more difficult to shoot good images an okay color photo can to some extent be rescued by the introduction of interesting colors they draw the eye color can be visually satisfying in itself with bw obviously there s no interesting color rescue the image succeeds or fails entirely on its composition and tonality bw photography is more unforgiving earlier i noted that when i shoot bw i set the camera to bw a lot of photographers choose to shoot in what s called raw format this captures all of the physical information about the intensity and color of the light which necessarily means it produces an image of unprocessed color raw files are meant to be processed later on the computer they allow you the most control over the final image in truth raw files will produce better monochrome photographs so why don t i do that i m not entirely sure i tell myself it s because when i shoot bw i want to commit to the image i don t want to turn a color image into a bw image but again it might be because i m lazy and don t want to spend the time fussing with a lot of post processing the thing about bw photography is that it feels timeless i admit that sentence reads like the sort of bullshit photography purists say when they want you to take them seriously but there s some truth to it the photograph above shot in may of 2026 could just as easily have been shot in may of 1986 the apartment building in the center of the frame was built in 1985 the longhorn cow and calf could have been shot in the 1930s that s part of the appeal isn t it it was fun and challenging to spend a month shooting mostly monochrome but i m not likely to do this again at least not in the foreseeable future i ll still shoot bw photos when i see something that feels like it should be shot in bw just like i always do but after a while i deeply missed color some images are just better in color in the selfie above that ceramic cat is orange the roof of that building in the background is bright blue the wallpaper was a soft sort of lavender the sewing machine was hot pink there s nothing wrong with the selfie in monochrome it s just incomplete maybe that s the thing maybe that s the challenge some images can feel complete or more complete in monochrome and some just can t the photographer has to be able to know the difference posted in confessional crap photography 1 reply rained out posted on june 11 2026 by greg 8 i was supposed to meet a friend yesterday and do a sort of photo walk he s got something planned that requires a specific sort of urban photography street scenes without people we agreed to meet at the top of a parking garage at 0930 that would give us the last of the morning light and at that time of day most city workers would be at their desks instead of loitering around the street the delivery drivers would have unloaded most of their goods by then and the unemployed folks would probably still be in bed or having coffee we hadn t counted on the storm which arrived almost precisely at 0925 my friend had the good sense to turn around and go back home me i d arrived early an old pi habit you always get there early and check out exits i was atop the parking garage watching the storm come it was impressive lightning thunder wind the complete package i do love a good storm my camera however does not my little ricoh gr isn t waterproof it s not even weather resistant i ve had it out in a light sprinkle but that s it this wasn t the sort of storm that begins with a few tentative drops this arrived as a goddamn deluge i took shelter in a rooftop elevator lobby at the opposite end of where my car was parked i was dry but effectively trapped that gold prius in the photo below that s my car without a camera i might have made a run for it but nope i didn t mind being trapped really i was dry my camera was dry and i figured the rain would let up eventually i just had to be patient which reminds me a million years ago when i was in high school and got in trouble again the boys advisor told me that patience was my only redeeming quality besides there were windows in the stairway beside the elevator so i had stuff to look at and as i said earlier i enjoy a good storm after about ten minutes i remembered something obvious the city of des moines has a skywalk system and i believe it connects every public parking garage in the city center so i wasn t trapped at all i just had to find the skywalk entrance and i was free to wander around i used to spend a lot of time in the skywalk system it s been somewhat diminished over time a major urban fire cut off a large central chunk as did some urban renewal it s not quite as extensive as it once was but it still covers about four miles and connects over fifty buildings and parking ramps the skywalk is climate controlled heated in the winter air conditioned in the summer there are coffee shops barbers law offices restaurants small markets along parts of the skywalk it used to be one of my favorite places for photography the thing about the skywalk is that it zigzags all through the downtown area it not only connects building hotels banks businesses apartment buildings it sometimes passes between them or behind them or through them it crosses streets rambles above alleyways sidles up against structures and reveals parts of the city you might otherwise never see and reveals them from perspectives you wouldn t otherwise get i roamed the skywalk for maybe half an hour then the storm passed the rain stopped and the sun came out i found the nearest exit to the street level stepped outside and shot this photograph the post storm light was delicious for about ten minutes at which point the city became unbearably humid i should have stayed in the skywalk instead i hiked the streets back to the parking garage got in my car and went home i didn t get to meet my friend we ll reschedule for next week or shoot the sort of photographs he needs wants but i had a good time and stayed mostly dry after a month of shooting mostly monochrome it was difficult to think in terms of color again i did shoot a lot of high contrast monochrome photos during my walk but i decided to stick to color for this blog it was refreshing to think about color again refreshing i guess that s what rain is for it worked posted in photography stuff i enjoy the hell out ot stuff that s completely wonderful where i went 8 replies in which i look at an old photo part 9 posted on may 24 2026 by greg 8 back in may of 2024 i read an article that suggested photographers could benefit from looking at their old photos as if they were made by a different person at the time i was skeptical about the idea but what the hell i did it anyway and here s me doing it again for the 9th time what s weird is the fact that i ve never been at all interested in looking at my old photos i understand a lot of photographers do that but it never made much sense to me i mean i shot those photos i know what they look like i ve already seen them i want to see something new without rereading the original post or the original article i can t quite recall the actual point of this exercise i think the idea was that by looking at one of your old photos as if some other photographer had shot it you can learn more about yourself as a photographer that doesn t sound quite right but i m pretty sure it had something to do with dissociating yourself from your work and evaluating it whatever the point was it was apparently enough for me to go rummaging through my digital archives which brings me to this 7 43 pm saturday february 11 2006 i shot this about two months after buying my first digital camera an olympus c770uz we re talking four megapixels i d put away my canon a1 a couple years earlier bored with photography most of the photos i d shot in the preceding years were job related forensic photos of crime scenes or surveillance photos a friend had bought one of those olympus cameras and it looked like fun so i bought one and started playing with it this photo was shot at night a 15 second exposure illuminated with a flashlight it s just one of my old arson boots jammed full of dead grass i d gathered during the day and set on top of a clay flowerpot no idea why i must have been in a dadaist mood i even gave the photo a title vase you know i m starting to understand some of the value of looking at old photos i was a lot more playful with photography back then i think having a digital camera being liberated from the expense and constraints of film gave me more freedom to just try weird shit and immediately get a sense of whether that weird shit worked i recall getting several friends to simultaneously throw objects into the air which i d then photograph things like footwear or toys or pieces of fruit hovering in the air now i think of it my first foray into instagram was a project i called things on a table which had a somewhat dadaist anti art nonsensical vibe and was also sparked by the purchase of new tech in this case a cellphone with a decent camera since it wasn t a real camera and instagram wasn t a serious photo app i could just fiddle around with them the project involved finding a thing putting that thing on a glass topped patio table then photographing the thing i wrote about things on a table back in 2014 i may have to consider doing some sort of dadaist project preferably one that doesn t require buying new tech posted in art stuff confessional crap greg looks at an old photo photography 8 replies is he making this up as he goes along obiviously posted on may 16 2026 by greg 6 as you almost certainly know comrade trump was recently asked how much thought he was giving to the financial situation of americans in his negotiations with iran his answer not even a little bit the only thing that matters when i m talking about iran they can t have a nuclear weapon i don t think about americans financial situation i don t think about anybody i think about one thing we cannot let iran have a nuclear weapon that s all for the moment let s just ignore the fact that iran has no nuclear weapons and currently lacks the capacity to create them let s just focus on that statement and the reaction to it obviously a lot of us citizens were offended and angered by it but what about trump s base specifically let s see what the trump loving patriots at freerepublic had to say about it you may be surprised well i was surprised to find freepers were almost evenly divided about trump s comments and his excursion in iran in general i expected the majority to be maximally trump brained and some most certainly were you can always count on cbs to slice out a piece of a trump statement to make it sound as bad as possible keeping the nukes out is well worth the price but the trump haters have no vision beyond that hatred by gibsonguy nothing would destroy the usa financial well being like an iranian nuke going off in a major city by protectourfreedom america first means doing what it takes to remove the iran nuclear threat how is this so hard to understand i would gladly pay 7 at the pump if that s what it takes by kleon why aren t liberals mad at iran for the high gas prices and general disorder in the mid east by az joe as the leader of the free world you need to lead by example and through the strength that you possess to do the right thing and stand up for other democracies israel is the only democratic country in the middle east by standing with them you instill discipline within the world community and establish your credentials as the leader of the free world imagine if you will letting israel flounder and allowing it to be nuked by iran that would be a terrible example and other countries would start losing respect for america the united states must lead sitting on your arse is not an
