Seeing the Mundane

Contemplative photography encourages us to turn off the noise and distraction continuously streaming from our conscious mind, and instead, be present in the moment, and without prejudice or expectation, be open to seeing beauty and visual interest in the mundane.

The Scream

Black And White Photography, David, Photography

If you stand around Edvard Munch’s painting of the Scream for more than a few minutes you will see endless tourists do this in front of it. This Japanese guy was playing to the crowd. Watched by nervous security guards and… me.

Eagle In Profile

Black And White Photography, Don, Photography
I saw this magnificent bird at a zoo in Colorado. This bald eagle is a rescue and has been in captivity for several years. But living in a structured environment does not seem to have affected its dignity and imposing bearing. It kindly posed in profile long enough for me to take this portrait.

Singing Her Heart Out

This image was taken at the Village of Babylon Block Party on on the evening of 8/11/2022. I was struck by the talent of this young lady especially her vocals. She was phenomenal. Image was taken with a Fujifilm X-T4 and XF 70-300mm WR lens.
