Mushroom

This was so random, one day just passing through the park and saw this old cypress tree stuck in this shallow part of water with these big white mushrooms on it, first thought was wow this is going to make an awesome B&W image, since I knew I was switching the RGB color to grayscale my exposure was going to be a little different. Follow me on my twitter to find tips and tricks shooting in B&W.

Back of Alley

Came across the back of this building  in downtown Hollywood just walking around one day, Originally shot these these images in color but knew they would make a cool B&W. Both images are shot with my new lens 90mm tilt shift lens, love this lens.

Front Porch

Was on my bike ride yesterday and noticed how the sunlight was coming through the trees to make these unique shadows on this front porch, just thought to myself it would be a cool image to capture.

Green Frog

I capture this stunning image of this beautiful frog on the wall last night, this little guy is just amazing. He is actually pretty small but getting up close to him he looks so big.

Bark on Tree

This is a great close up shot of some bark on a tree that shows good texture and contrast, more than likely I  will transfer this image to B&W and have this as a fine art print. The sunlight that is acting as a back light highlighting the bark on the right edge really caught my eye and thought this would be a great snap shot.

Downtown Hollywood

Found a unique building in downtown hollywood in the alley way with some beautiful natural light hitting the side of the building capturing this historic part of town.

John Lyod Park-Hollywood

I was along the coast line near hollywood beach when I saw these cool cypress trees in the water, the reflection in the water caught my eyes.

Sunset over apartment balcony

After a long day and coming back home to relax I came across this beautiful sunset looking out from my apartment balcony. Sometimes you don’t even need to leave your house in order to get that perfect picture. *Remember to use a tripod to get a nice sharp image in these low light situations to achieve that stunning image at a low shutter speed.

Right before the sunset, you see the most amazing clouds ever. I have always like taking pictures of clouds since you get a new picture every time….
