I decided recently to commit more seriously to making the images for this blog, rather than desperately shooting things willy nilly as I found myself doing way too much last year. In fact, I struggled to come up with a favorite from 2025 -- so many of them were just utterly talentless. I've also decided to start blogging in black and white more, since my photography hobby and eventual career began not only with a camera in my hand but also an enlarger in front of me. I love black and white and I really miss having a darkroom, or rather a working darkroom, since I do have all the essential components of one gathering dust in the garage. 

So this year I hope to make great pictures, not just pictures. Here's a shot from Sunday's dog walk that isn't very great at all but looks much better when converted to monochrome. I didn't have time to think about a better approach to this subject since I had a little dog pulling on my arm! Perhaps I'll get another shot at it sometime soon.
