Massachusetts Skies

Black And White Photography, Marcus, Photography

Nothing like a good monochrome architectural shot once in a while. This is a current one, from my visit to Boston last week. Taken with my iPhone 14 Pro, which is awesome for high contrast black&white photography – this is a jpg straight out of the phone. I love Boston. It is full of history, great architecture and a prefect blend between old and new.

Chasing the Water

Photography, Black And White Photography, Marcus

There are moments in street photography that last only a fraction of a second. A child runs along the fountain on a blazing summer day, surrounded by exploding water and backlight. For me, it was the silhouette that made the image. No face, no colours, just movement, light and the joy of being completely lost in the moment. Sometimes monochrome is all you need to tell the story.

Playing away

Street photography means capturing life as it happens. “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women, merely players“, is a famous quote from William Shakespeare. As street photographer roaming the streets, I’m always on the lookout for those little scenes that tell a story and leave enough room for every viewer’s own interpretation of the captured moment. Walking through a little town on the island of Sardinia in Italy, I passed an open door of an otherwise empty bar, were the musician was playing away towards that open window. Indifferent of what was happening behind him. A truly precious moment.

Walking through a door

Walking Through a Door | Samarkand | 2025

Life is a journey that ends not with fear, but with curiosity. In the final moment, we are walking through a door, leaving behind everything we have ever known. No one can tell us what lies beyond, yet the unknown has always been where new discoveries begin. Perhaps there are wonders we cannot imagine, familiar faces, endless peace, or something greater than words can describe. Until that moment comes, all we can do is wonder—and when the time arrives, step forward with quiet curiosity to see what waits on the other side.
