Thank you for stopping by and exploring my black-and-white world. My photography is a pursuit of light—finding the quiet moments where light, shadow, and subject come together to create something more than a photograph. I invite you to take your time, explore the galleries, and discover the images that speak to you. Photographs are available in a variety of sizes, and you’ll also find occasional blog posts about my photography and creative process.

Waves and Ripples
Copyright © 2025 Barbara Altevers Photography
I was drawn to the contrast between the calmness of the water and the ripples moving across the Verde River. The circles were formed as the water moved around rocks, and if you look very carefully, you can see reflections of the rocks within those circles. Some of the rocks are partly covered as the water flows over them. The closer I looked, the more I found happening on the surface.
