Sven Grauer Black and White Photography

desert landscape



The Dune, Death Valley

A black and white photography taken at Death Valley. It's quite difficult to find sand dunes without footprints, so I chose an extreme hot day to photograph this desert landscape.

The white crane

One of a not very well known pictograph in the american southwest. I was glad that I found and photographed it in an area, where i suspect that this artefact could be. Well, the recognition applies to the artist who made it long time ago. The original photo I made is so sharp, that you even can see how the artist was working. I can say it was real planned art.

The monster slayer

A very impressive petroglyph I was lucky to photograph.

Granada, photo

The curve

Maybe my favourite photo in this black and white gallery. My wife was planning a culture trip and I was more prepared about history and crowds of tourists. At this palace I recognized perfect light conditions. So I asked my wife for a shooting permission ;-) Well, I made just one single shot that day. This one.





Light and shadow

I was playing here with the shadows and triangle lights. It's only a short time in the afternoon that you will have this shadow game at this arches, so always you have to be quick to photograph. You can see every second a new picture.

Tuscany clouds, black and white photo

Tuscany clouds

Zypresses in the tuscany are quite famous. For photographing this scenery I had just around 10 minutes. Behind me there were really dark clouds. This was my disaster in Italy. I had every day really bad weather and rain. So this is my only picture from the tuscany.
