Description

 

No longer content with creating black and white photographic portraits that resemble sketches on blank paper, I suddenly felt the urge to go in a radically new direction. Exchanging bright backgrounds for the deepest black, darkening shadows and, perhaps the biggest change of all, retaining the original color.  

 

Having attempted this new editing style on a recent photo, I was stunned by the dramatic result! So I re-edited older work with equally dramatic results. It is truly exciting to see a former favored style give way to a brand new, richly colored one.  Old photos, long forgotten having taken on new life.
