I enjoy black-and-white photography because it emphasizes light, shadow, and texture. Without the distraction of color, attention shifts to the ridges of a leaf, sunlight falling across a field, or reflections dancing on water. Infrared photography offers another perspective, transforming familiar landscapes into something almost dreamlike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Hollows\u003c\/em\u003e reflects a secluded space, where light gathers in pondside plants and sparkles across the water. \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Aptos',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Aptos; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eThis image expresses my appreciation for the beauty found close to home in McHenry County.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eI work with traditional film photography, developing and printing my images in my own darkroom.
