Black and white photography offers an alternative way of seeing reality, a different mirror to the world, a powerful means of artistic expression. The book will help determine what a good subject is and how the subject can be made to look its best. Using 190 eloquent pictures as examples, with details on how they were taken and printed, the author provides a wealth of practical advice. Covered: exposure, lighting, film, filters, formats, composition, darkroom techniques--plus classic themes, unforgettable portraits, sports and action, reporting, architecture, nudes, landscapes, etc. The reader will understand the graphic appeal of a monochrome photograph. shit Journal Review Editor
