A Word About Black & White

I love a great Black & White print. The first roll of film I ever shot was a roll of B&W which I then processed and printed. I never failed to have a darkroom at my disposal from that time. The skills I learned in all of those years of darkroom work have served me well. In this digital age, it is easy for just about anyone to produce an "OK" B&W image. It is another thing to be able to produce a "quality" B&W image. One that includes all of the tonal range of a traditional film B&W print. It's not as easy as just pushing a button in some computer program, but then, most things worth having are not easy. Skill and experience still count.
Thanks, see you again.
