Dipping my toes back in to photography and social media after a long hiatus. I've recently created a site to collect some of my favorite photos and put them up for viewing in a way I've always imagined them in my own head. An exercise for myself at a minimum, but I thought some might enjoy it! https://onebyone.photo

For Entertaining Guests

https://justin-farrimond.pixels.com/featured/for-entertaining-guests-justin-farrimond.html

You could be the life and soul of the party tonight.
Or you could have too much to drink and murder a loudmouth in the yard necessitating the digging of another grave.
You really need to do something about that temper.

This black-and-white photograph captures an old, narrow wooden shutter door deeply set into a thick, ancient stone wall. The door consists of tall vertical planks of weathered wood, their grain still visible beneath years of sun, rain, and time, giving the surface a gently uneven texture full of small cracks and soft wear. Across the right side stretches a beautiful hand-forged iron strap hinge shaped like a slender tree branch or climbing vine. The dark iron contrasts sharply with the lighter wood and pale stone. Centered on the door hangs a simple iron ring knocker, its circular ring resting against a small decorative backplate. A small, modern padlock—the only clearly recent object—secures everything, threaded through a hasp and staple near the edge. The surrounding wall is built from irregular blocks of limestone or sandstone, each stone varying in size and shape, held together by thick, weathered mortar lines that have softened and receded over centuries. A plain stone lintel rests above the recessed doorway, its edges smoothed by long use. The whole scene carries a hushed, sculptural stillness. Strong tonal contrasts between the bright rough stone, the darker aged wood, and the deep black of the iron create a composition that feels both intimate and enduring, as though the door has guarded its threshold for hundreds of quiet years.

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe..."

#PletzfeldAnimalFriends #DaffyTheCoon #photography #animals #cats #CatsOfMastodon #caturday #monochrome #MonochromeMarch #BlackAndWhite #BlackAndWhitePhotography #bw #bnw #darktable #mywork #myphoto

This is a dramatic black-and-white close-up photograph of a Maine Coon cat’s face. The cat is lying down and looking straight at the camera with a calm, slightly curious expression. Its large, almond-shaped eyes are wide open and catch the light, giving them a bright, reflective glow. The cat has the classic Maine Coon features: very long, thick fur with distinct dark tabby stripes running down the forehead and across the cheeks, prominent white tufts of fur inside the ears, and long, pointed ear tips with extra tufts of fur sticking out. Long, thin white whiskers fan out from its muzzle. One large, furry paw is resting in the foreground on a dark, soft surface, showing the thick pads and fluffy fur around it. The background is a smooth, gradient gray, keeping all attention on the cat’s expressive face. The overall mood is intimate and majestic, perfectly capturing the gentle giant personality of a Maine Coon.

Beauty In Simplicity

https://justin-farrimond.pixels.com/featured/beauty-in-simplicity-justin-farrimond.html

I love the simplicity of this small stone building on the Isle of Iona, Scotland. Not sure of its purpose but it's easy to find between the nunnery ruins and the village hall.

I once tried shooting an entire year in black and white. It didn’t last. In February 2026, I tried again, this time limiting myself to just one month. It resulted in the most Norwegian photo I've ever shot

Black and white photograph of a sculpture depicting a worker in a suit, with shoes and a suitcase in his right hand, his left hand in his trouser pocket. A huge block of Icelandic volcanic basalt replaces the upper half of his body and his head, the same block from which the lower half was carved. The worker "walks" on cobblestones, with a low stone wall behind him and the small artificial lake of Reykjavik visible beyond.

Photographie noir et blanc d'une sculpture représentant un travailleur habilllé en complet, avec chaussures et valise à la main droite, sa main gauche dans sa poche de pantalon. Un énorme bloc de basalte volcanique islandais remplace la moitié supérieure de son corps et sa tête, le même à partir duquel le bas de son corps a été sculpté. Le travailleur "marche" sur du pavé, avec un muret de pierres derrière lui et le petit lac artificiel de Reykjavik visible au-delà.

This past week, 99 years ago, Miles Dewey Davis III was born in Alton, Illinois.

On November 12, 1989, on 60 Minutes, Harry Reasoner asked him if Black musicians were better at jazz and blues because of slavery. The question could’ve gone sideways.

What Davis said—quietly, precisely—was about rhythm, memory, race, and the meaning of swing. #music #Jazz #Histodons #history #blackmastodon #photography #blackandwhite

On May 1, 1865, in the 1st spring of freedom, Black Charlestonians held a procession to honor Union soldiers buried in a mass grave.
They came with roses. With hymns. With children.
It was the 1st Memorial Day.
But America gave the credit to others & buried the memory.
