Frozen Winter Pond at the Farmhouse

In Black and White, Landscape, Lost In Nature, Seasons by Kevin WenningLeave a Comment

I’ve had my eye on this spot for a while and I’ll probably return here again. I was waiting for either an overcast day or a perfect sunset to go and make a photo. I need to make an image here to hang in someone’s home. My vision for the photo they want is with the pond, the row of …

Borobudur Temple

In Black and White, Cultural Photography, Landmarks, Worldwide Butter by Kevin WenningLeave a Comment

I visited Borobudur Temple early in the morning hoping to get some epic sunrise photos. Don’t try to go in before sunrise even if there is a side gate open. That’s a long story not worth re-telling. I recommend that you just go to the main entrance and buy a ticket like everybody else. Well, the weather didn’t cooperate and …

Ice or Surf Ambiguous Photography

In Artistic Photography, Black and White, Lost In Nature, Seasons by Kevin WenningLeave a Comment

Is it Ice or is it Surf? I like photos that make you look twice to figure out what you’re looking at. I’m not sure if this image fully accomplishes that, but that’s what I was going for at the time. There was a period where I only took these kind of photos. I was stuck in a rut only …

We rarely see a sunset and moonrise cycle with a completely cloudless sky. That’s especially true in the mountains of Colorado. This is one of our location stops on the …

You know what you’re looking at in this photo so you expect it to become clear and it never does. My wife hates this photo. I enjoy a lot of tv shows and movies that are heavy on imagination, sci-fi and even fantasy. She likes narratives that are rooted in the real world. We’re different that way and that’s a …

Devil’s Water Painting

In Artistic Photography, Black and White, Further Lost, Lost In Nature by Kevin WenningLeave a Comment

Water painting in the swamps. Well that’s what it looked like to me anyway. I’ve been working through some old images, and applying creative editing when looking at them because frankly sometimes the image just wasn’t that interesting to begin with. Learning which photos are worth spending time on is a learning curve that I’m still working on. My post …

A Monotone Day at the Coast

In Artistic Photography, Black and White, Lost In Nature by Kevin WenningLeave a Comment

A monotone photography day happens when black and white is your best option. That great light is just not happening so go monotone. Just do it. I used to be so committed to getting the great sunset shot when the sky goes off and there are deep colors all over the place. Yes, of course that’s awesome but I decided …
