Welcome to My World

West Virginia

Country living can be primitive but when the power goes out, you can sit on the porch and look at the stars.

Taken with the Mamiya RB67 with Polaback using Fufjifilm FP3000B.

Other worlds can be seen here.

I'm really looking forward to seeing more of YOUR world, Karen. So different from mine, that's for sure. I love your creative photo talent!

Love the tonal range, really hate power outrage. Hope it is back soon.

Can you see the Milky Way in your part of the world?

Well seen. Great b&w work.

At least there's no light pollution where you are :-)
Interesting pov and good tones. Good choice of monochrome.

great take on My world Karen, like the low pov

I presume the old rocking chair is on the porch too - for that 'primitive living'?

Great warm light in this B&W photo. The skies must be dark in your part of the world. V

Oh yes, looking at the stars in the mountains ~ good country living.
Cindi Smith02-Nov-2011 00:54
Have done that here as well. Nice. Country living has more perks that anything in my world. :) One day.....
Guest 02-Nov-2011 00:19
well it looks like a pump pressure valve...or maybe it is a kerosene heater... nice tones..
laine01-Nov-2011 22:21
A nice insight into your world, Karen.

Perfect exposure for this interesting study in forms, texture, light and shadow. V.
Janice Dunn01-Nov-2011 21:09
Always handy when the lights go out. When the power goes out here I often think I should do the ironing, or other boring jobs I've ignored!!! But they all need power too.
Mairéad01-Nov-2011 20:44
Looking at the stars in those circumstances would certainly be good with no light pollution.
Th B&W suits the old fashioned subject matter.
Walter Otto Koenig01-Nov-2011 20:38
Great tonal range and contrasts. Very crisp and sharp. "V"
