Texture and Light

Black and White photos, Photography

Today, I’m merging two challenges in a single post. I hope this is suitable for both of you wonderful hosts who continually inspire us with fresh ideas and motivate us in our photography: Leanne’s Monochrome Madness and Becky’s November Shadows.

This image is ideal for this post, effectively highlighting its shadows, striking contrast, and the textured richness of the bricks that delivers a compelling visual effect. The contrast between light and dark accentuates the fine details of the worn corner, revealing depth and dimensionality that’s frequently missed in more straightforward images.

      1. I can sit reclined a little on the couch, but not at the desktop computer where I’d have to sit up straight. Can’t do anything but take it easy!

  11. Dear friend Ritva, beautifully striking image! The shadows and textures really bring the brickwork to life. Such a powerful use of contrast — simple, yet so full of depth.
