Welcome to Fine Art Black and White Photography
by Bryan Briscoe-Smith.

Born in Liverpool, England, I have been a dedicated photographer since serving in the British Army many years ago. I work exclusively in medium format black and white. I develop, print, enlarge, mat and frame all my own work.

My interests are varied, and I do not specialize in any particular field of photography. I cover a broad range of subjects. I try to create images that are interesting, tell a story, or that represent periods in time. I practice direct photography with as little manipulation of the subject as possible.

Over the years I have exhibited and sold my work in England, South America (Venezuela), and in the United States in California and Colorado. I also have prints in private collections in England, California, Colorado, Georgia, Texas, Virginia and Florida. My work has been displayed in Photographer's Gallery in Denver, and is currently on display at various galleries in the Colorado Springs area, the Colorado Springs Art Guild, Pueblo Art Guild, and the Business of Arts Center in Manitou Springs.

My work has also been shown at the Gallery of Contemporary Art at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, the Manitou Springs Town Hall, the Colorado Springs Airport, the Spanish Peaks Arts Council in La Veta, Colorado, and at the Hays Arts Council in Hays, Kansas. In addition, my work has been on display at the Colorado State Fairs for the past 10 years.

After almost 30 years with Pacific Bell of California, as a manager in the Staff and Engineering Departments, I retired in December, 1990. Having survived the rigors of living in Southern California, including the earthquakes, my wife and I moved to Colorado in 1994. Because I am fascinated by black and white images and because I have a color vision deficiency, I am a 100% black and white photographer.
