I made this image during my recent trip to Portugal. It was a beautiful morning up in the Serra da Estrela, at an elevation of some 2,000 meters (6,500 feet).
You can't see the warm, pink colors of the sky. You can't see the green tones of the tower. But you can tell this is not mid-day light. I love shooting black and white during sunrise.
I don't usually try new film stocks, I like the results my Ilford HP5+ pushed to 800 delivers.
I've been more interested in trying new things as of lately, though. After working on a few fun photography projects this summer, including infrared photography, I'm finally shooting different emulsions to see what I can create with them.
The first one, Ilford Delta 3200.

They weren't. They hadn't for a while.
If there's a place in the US where you can feel like being in a western, that's probably Monument Valley.

This unreleased image is part of my project America Untitled that is being exhibited this month.
I made this image on a very, very cold day in Michigan City, Indiana. The beaches along the shore of Lake Michigan looked like anything but sand beaches where people get tan or children play, and all the equipment used during the summer by visitors and staff were like out-of-place artifacts.
This lifeguard tower stood out to me, and I think it made for a compelling image.

I wasn't expecting to find a tower like this in Grand Canyon National Park. I loved the way it looked, and the birds flying around gave it an almost creepy feeling to it.
I knew I had to make an image.
You might know that I've recently set up a new darkroom after leaving all my equipment in the US. As part of this new setup, I got some **Rodinal** to try as my new developer. And I made a mistake.
