As much as I love color, I think classical black-and-white photography is a wonderful form of expression, and one that really works well for contrasts in light and shadow. Black-and-white came immediately to mind when I saw the setting sun's last rays striking this rock wall recently in Colorado's Garden of the Gods. The range of shadows from hard to diffuse across the cliff face made this particular scene especially interesting for me, and I hope I have been able to share some aspect of my sense of wonder as the light pattern moved swiftly and silently across the ancient sandstone surface.
Since it's a busy time for everyone (shop 'til ya drop!), I'll end here and wish you good luck in all your pursuits.
Fine-art photographer Zachary Singer has had a camera in hand since childhood—more than three decades now. He came to fine-art photography through his experiences in photojournalism: While shooting for Greenpeace and other environmental groups, as well as Native American tribes in the Southwest, Zach learned to quickly capture the essence of his subjects.
Zach has written dozens of articles on photography for magazines such as Outdoor Photographer, PCPhoto, and Digital Photo Pro, and has taught photography at California’s Santa Monica College. When time permits, he works with a select group of commercial clients.
