Absolutely beautiful. Black and white gives such a different feeling. I have to day, though, I do think I like the fireweed in color better, just my 2 cents. Love the bike rack!
Black and white certainly does change the mood. I think I like the fireweed in black and white because it was stormy and grey that night – the flowers made it pop in the photo, but in real life the mood was ominous. The bike rack is one of my favs too. Thank you for your 2 cents!
I appreciate all of these, and really love some of them in B&W, like the eagle, the bench, the dogwood, etc. But I still have the seagulls in my mind in color, and I love them so much that way with the warmer sun. Then again, if I hadn’t seen them that way first, I’d still love the B&W version of that lovely crowd!
I hesitated to include that one in the set because the light was striking, but there is nice contrast for the birds in b&w too. Thank you for the kind words!
Seeing the Big Dipper through the Northern Lights was truly a wow for me.
You continue to amaze me…I shall miss your view of Alaska.
Thank you Jo. I have a lot of photos to post from this summer still!
It’s so interesting which ones people like better in colour. For B&W I love Gustavus Beach at sunset, and the flock of seagulls. I like Halibut point and the fireweed better in colour.
The whole collection has a completely different mood in B&W. Lovely.

Thank you for the feedback, Alison. Photography is very subjective – I wonder what people would say without seeing them in color in the previous post?
Stunning!!!!!!! Loved each and every click ❤
Thank you very much!
Jeff although I am not much of a black and white fan, it’s hard to not love each and every one of these. The first with the rippling sand and reflecting water really speaks to me.
Are you headed to Thailand now?
Thank you Sue. I like that top one too. I’ll be in Thailand in 2 weeks!
That’s great Jeff! Looking forward to your posts and travel suggestions.
Photography heaven…this is what you’ve created here. Beautiful work Jeff.
Thank you Randall.
