The Arch

Black And White Photography, David Jensen, Mobile Photography, Photography

One of my recent hikes near Sedona was to Fay Canyon. If you know where to turn off the main path, you can climb up to this arch. Be warned: it is not an easy climb as the top third requires some scrambling over rocks.

The Bridge

The Bridge | Oregon

Last weekend I finally returned to the Oregon coast, more than six years after my last visit. A black & white photographer’s paradise, for sure. The Astoria-Megler Bridge, taking US 101 across the Columbia River, the last bridge before the river runs into the Pacific Ocean. The gloomy weather definitely helped in taking this long exposure monochrome image, smoothing out motion in water and clouds.

Weisspriachtal | Austria | 2017

Ansel Adams is for monochrome landscape photographers the same as Henri Cartier-Bresson is for black and white street shooters. For me, both legends are inspirational masters of their craft. While Ansel Adams captured the beauty of American National Parks in all their monochrome glory, similar places in Europe are much harder to find. But when doing a winter hike in the Weisspriachtal (in Austria’s Lungau region) along the banks of the Lonka river, I felt very much reminded of Ansel’s photographs. Capured with an Olympus PEN-F, image specs 1/400 sec @ f/10, ISO200 and 28mm focal length.
