This winter I had vertigo real bad, had to use a cane. Repeated Epley Maneuvers cleared it up. I would sit on the front porch and shoot images of my cactus and other plants. It was just to be using the camera, I didn't think I was learning anything, but I had the time to get familiar with my 14mm lens.

in every one of them. I love the black and white overall - and the balance of weight and color in the last one.

I like the first one, it looks like some dreamland not of this world, of course that could happen with asparagus and onions!

shape, form, depth, mood and light that you don’t get in color photography.

I love the first one and immediately thought, “Nature’s lace”

It is breathtaking!

All we had. 120 film and box cameras were my reality. Shooting B&W feels normal to me. It is a connection to my past.

My first camera.
