“B&W Beach”
Shot this Mangrove Tree along a isolated stretch of beach in Long Key State Park, the bright sand and deep blue skies made it a natural for a conversion.

Hello my name is Bernie Kasper and I am a photographer from Madison, a small town located in the Southeastern part of Indiana on the banks of the Ohio River, the area I call home has a rich diversity of topography and wildlife that make it a special place. From the canyons and waterfalls of Clifty Park to the wetlands of the Muscatatuck NWR the area is rich in photographic opportunities, hopefully I will be able to convey the beauty of the area and share any info as well about this place I call home

You take great pictures. Does the type of camera really affect the picture you take, or is it simply the person behind a camera?
That’s striking! I love that kind of scene.
I think a little bit of both, it’s nice to have nice equipment, but if you have a good eye for it you can do just as well without all the expensive gear.
Thanks Terry.
Lovely photo! I can almost feel the water lapping over my toes. The image brings back memories of south Florida and the familiar aromas of the coast. Thanks!
Loving the B&W Bernie. Color is great but nothing is as dramatic as the B&Ws. Ron.
Wow, a great shot to be sure. I guess it took you all of 2 seconds to figure it was me huh? It’s midnight and i’m still trying to nail down the details of the new body & lenses. talk at u later!

This is really gorgeous!
What is so special about this shot is the use of the grays! WOW
wow, very nice!
This is a really cool photo – once again I had to take a look step back and then look again. Prolly it’s old age creeping into my mind.
What I find fascinating is how clear these shots are .. this also makes for a really cool conversion as well. This shot pretty much says to me “isolation” and “timelessness.” Once again Bernie – wow!
Hey Bernie, you got some awesome images from your trip.
Awesome Bernie.
I love how you placed the tree barely off center to the left. Love your black and white points as well. Clouds are dreamy. I think that is what Key West is for anyways, dreaming.
Bernie, this is one of those b/w’s that take your breath away. The contrast is amazing, and I can imagine what that sky looked like in color. You know, a good photographer recognizes (as you did) which images would look great converted to black and white. This one is perfect for it. Wow.
HI! I came upon this site by trying to look up a friend from my teen years. I know a guy named Terry Kasper from Madison. I believe he is about 42 yrs old. His mother’s name is Sherry and she married my neighbor Jim Ponsler, I think his brothers names were Chuck and Tim. Anyway , was just curious about how he was doing. Hopefully o.k. Last I new he was in the Army? or some other branch of the service.
Oh, and I think your pictures all great!
Sincerely, Cindy Brooks
Cindy..I can’t tell you much about him, he was a distant cousin and I really never spent much time with him.
Thanks for the compliment though, take care !
