PHOTOGRAPHY FAQS
BLACK AND WHITE
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
INTRODUCTION
Black and white is the heritage of photography. Until the middle of the twentieth century it was the only way to create a photographic image any colouring that was done was put on by hand. Its images have a special quality. There is a beauty when it is used in still life or landscape, yet it gives an authoritative strength to portraits and documentary work.
Producing black-and-white images from film is an easier process than many might think. It is always rewarding though it may take a lifetime to master. Nothing ever betters the experience of watching a black-and-white picture gradually appear in the developing tray under the darkroom safelights. It is a magic you have to repeat. Many people learned their photography through simple manual cameras and home-processed black-and-white images. For them, this book can answer all the questions about pushing the film-based art forward into the digital era.
Black and white has an unsurpassed ability to convey character, as shown in this image from a theatre production.
Street photography with wide-angle lenses, black-and-white film and quick reflexes has a long tradition modern digital cameras with black-and-white modes let you explore the genre.
A generation of readers will have no direct experience of film-based black-and-white photography, though it is still taught in some schools and colleges. Certain educational institutions are now re-establishing traditional wet darkrooms for black and white because of demands from the digital generation to explore the craft basis of black-and-white photography. On the computer, black and white is an easy option but experience has shown that getting quality fine-art, digital black and white is as hard, if not harder, than mastering the traditional darkroom arts. There are certainly more variables to juggle and things that can go wrong.
