About Nancy Goldstein

I'm a fine art photographer in Southeastern Virginia specializing in black and white photography, but sometimes I dabble in color.

When you take a lot of pictures like I do, you have good days and bad. This was one of the good ones. I wasn’t concerned about anything other than capturing what I saw around me. Those days, where the photo gods are smiling down on you, don’t happen very often.

Today’s photo was taken on the Elizabeth River Ferry. I used a fisheye lens attachment on my iPhone for the distortion it created. I dirtied the photo up a bit and added some grain to make it look a little grungy, as if it I shot it on film.

It’s a cool spring day in SEVA, and I have to cut the grass. Oh. Joy. Probably my least favorite task ever, and it’s pollen season.

Today’s photo is the on floor. Literally. This is the floor of the MacArthur Mall in Norfolk, Virginia. The colors, lighting, and pattern caught my eye, so I tilted the phone a little and snapped it. During processing I boosted the colors and increased the contrast a bit to get what you see today.

I took today’s photo in a deli in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I wondered why this car grill was hanging on the wall at first, but then I understood.

Sometimes something catches my eye, and I snap the photo without really thinking. I thought I had done a decent job of capturing this, but when I looked at it afterwards, I noticed a few problems.

I had to do a bit more to this image than I normally do before I could post it: I had to straighten it and increase the color saturation a bit until it looked how I remembered.
