Colourful Black & White by John Driessen
I started with photography when I was about 10 years old in the darkroom of my father, standing next to him in a darkroom and seeing the pictures like a miracle appear on paper in some sort of “water”.
Some years later I enlarged and developed the negativs myself and bought my first camera ( Lubitel ).
Since 2005 (Nikon D70) the pictures are made digitally and the darkroom became Photoshop and later Lightroom.
The miracles became normal. Camera’s came and went, and now with a Z7, well…..
almost everything is possible.
Lately I scanned hundreds and hundreds off old black& white pictures, made by my father.
And the feeling of that old magic came back to me.
I still like black and white pictures, but…. O yes, color can be beautiful too!
What you see here are my best shots over the past 15 years. I hope you enjoy them!
