On the road to Ronda, Spain, 2002.

Continuing the series of candid portraits, this one a road, rather than a street photo, was shot using a Sony Cybershot camera, processed on an iPad Air 2, with the Snapseed app.

I love shooting candid portraits, using available light, with my iPhone. This shot, however was taken with my Panasonic Lumix TZ-5, before I had an iPhone.

Meanwhile, over on Instagram, three days ago, I was honored to be chosen as “BnWButNot of the Week”, or Black and White But Not, for my candid sepia portrait of a Taos Pow Wow participant on Instagram’s @bnwbutnot gallery, out of some 265 thousand plus images. I invite you to follow my Instagram feed, @johnfarnsworthphotographer on Instagram, or, if you prefer, on my website, johnfarnsworthphotographer.com/instagram

Unless otherwise noted, all my Instagram images are shot on an iPhone.

Vieille Ville (Old Town), Nice, France

Street dogs, like this handsome fellow, are an important part of my street photography.

EARL, HORSEMAN

Earl. Not only a horseman, king of the dancehall, too, and ladies’ man. A real Taos character, and a friend.

THE FACE OF A SAINT / Daily Painting #1358

The Face of s Saint / Oil on Panel / 6 x 6 inches

Hmmm, this painting is based, loosely, on the face of a carved, polychromed antique Santo. But I can hardly resist thinking of it as a portrait of a young Oscar Wilde. Not exactly a Saint. What, or whom, do you see? At any rate, I thoroughly enjoyed pushing the paint around. If you know my work, you know I've spent most of my career covering my tracks, hiding and sublimating my brush strokes. I'm starting to feel like a painter!
