A few posts back I shared a smartphone image of some alliums against a white wall. I'm pleased to say this image has been published in Black and White Photography magazine, as part of their 'Smartshots' feature.

If you don't already know it, this is certainly a publication to check out. Highlights this month include work by Stephen Shore and Nick Brandt, as well as lots of inspirational images and advice. While the magazine doesn't exactly have a house style, there is a unifying elegance to the work, and the quality of the reproductions is very fine. The emphasis is on artistic photography (of the black and white kind, naturally) rather than equipment or industry issues. I also enjoy that the images are subtly toned, which creates a visual variety, even in black and white.
