Cactus in Winter

You don’t expect to see prickly pear cactus in winter, in Pennsylvania. I’ve photographed it along one of my walks before, but this time I had black and white film and that made all the difference.

This was one of the photos from my recent A Walk in Black and White Film. All photos were taken with Kodak 400 ISO black and white film using my 40-year-old Pentax K1000, on one overcast winter day, January 14, 2020. I used the scans from the company that developed them just as they came off the roll of film, no adjustments at all.
