Black and white photography is a wonderful media for creating intimate portraits because the lack of color immediately simplifies the image, causing the viewer to focus on the real subject of the photograph—the portraiat’s subject—instead of their clothing or surroundings.

Many photographers, including myself, wear glasses. I guess that’s why camera manufacturers invented built-in diopter corrections! As far as I can tell, the first cameras to have adjustable diopter correction, as opposed to screw-in viewfinder adapters, were the Olympus OM’s (3 and 4) and the Nikon F4.

If there’s a chance that in 100 year’s time there will be just one person who will look at my work and be touched by it, then I must continue to create art for that person.—Yayoi Kusama.

When I find myself wondering, “what do I shoot next?” or start to think “there’s nothing to photograph,” I like to shoot some images in direct monochrome mode.

I can understand how you might think that having three different cameras for infrared capture a bit over-the-top. I would agree with that  but I have my reasons even if to the average photographer they might not seem to make much sense.
