Christmas lights in July, wide streets with no cars, and people gone.

It’s usually never as bleak as the black and white photograph can portray it. I admit to slanting my B&W images that way. It’s the medium and how I like to use it.

Alligators, Kodak 400 Film Filter

The photographs of the Alligator gathering still fascinate me. Better yet, I haven’t even looked at the second set taken from a different location.

Black and white film is perfect for this type of raw image. Having given up film a long time ago I use digital filters that look the same as many of the traditional film ASA and manufacturers.

This image is a standard Kodak 400. About as basic B&W and there is. I plan on creating an article using various B&W films as an example of the digital options available.
